Re: So My Test Scores Came In
The problem with standardized testing is that it's... standardized. The sum total of all you learn in high school may or may not coincide. You wouldn't take a hard test in your high school without going to class/studying, would you? Taking the SAT cold is similarly risky. The best way to study is with old tests and the right books. The best material = old SAT exams. But if you want the closest **** to what you're going to get: Barron's is good for SAT Math IIC and nothing else (The books Sparknotes has for Math IIC is excellent too). Princeton Review is great for Physics/Chem. Old SAT practice tests are the best for the actual SAT, and I wouldn't recommend using ANYTHING else to study with. You can get all this **** at a B&N.
