Title: Too much material
Review: After reading the reviews for this book I thought for sure it would be a huge help. But... it wasn't. There's around 20 sections and although that might not seem that bad, for someone who is going high school five days a week and has hours of homework every night it is. Also, the information and examples presented at the beginning of each section are not sufficient enough. The book will give a simple example to explain a concept and then when you work on the practice questions they will be much harder. Too often I find myself scratching my head and turning to the answer page for an explanation and so instead of actually working through the problems myself and getting better at the process that goes with it I am actually just trying to remember how the book did it. If you are planning to get a high score and want an all around great book for the SAT I would suggest Baron's 2400 Aiming for the perfect score. It's a much more doable book and the math section is extremely helpful.
Is the review positive or negative?
