Product Description
In March 2005, the College Board will begin to administer a new SAT. To help prepare all students for the new SAT and college success(tm), the College Board introduces:
    The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT(tm)
Here's the successor to the College Board's #1 best seller 10 Real SATs. This new book is the only one with practice tests created by the test maker according to proprietary new SAT specifications. With the book's 700+ pages and 21 chapters, students:
  • Gain experience by taking 8 practice tests and receiving estimated scores.
  • Raise confidence by reviewing concepts, test-taking approaches, and practice questions.
  • Increase understanding of the new PSAT/NMSQT and the new SAT. Plus, book buyers receive free online score reports and a discount on The Official SAT Online Course(tm) with auto essay scoring.
Changes to the new SAT include:
  • The name of the current SAT verbal section will be changed to critical reading, analogies will be eliminated and short reading passages will be added to existing long reading passages.

  • A new section called the SAT writing section will be added, which will contain multiple-choice grammar and usage questions and a student- written essay.
  • The SAT math section will be expanded to include topics from third-year college- preparatory math (also known as Algebra II); in addition, quantitative comparisons will be eliminated from this section. The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT is part of the College Board's new SAT Readiness Program(tm) of print, online, and professional development resources.

    4 out of 5 stars useful, but no solutions...   December 16, 2008
      1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    College Board's Official SAT Study Guide is the only book with real SAT questions, but it lacks solutions to those questions. You need to get this book too:

    5 out of 5 stars less than 75   December 15, 2008
    Before I decide to purshase this product I knew what was about it. The book is not for me. But I know it is very helpfull for my son. When we were searching it was a very nice experience 'cause we saw many amazing products we wanted to get. Even do was my first time buying on line I am so satisfied with Amazon. As third parties as well. I come here often since then. Thanks Amazon.


    4 out of 5 stars Great Buy   December 15, 2008
    It is so worth what I paid, and then some. It explains in great detail and the wording is easy to understand. I just wish the book would focus more on problem areas and not just the whole SAT test. I still think the book will help me tremendously on the exam.


    5 out of 5 stars Bought this for the mystery tutor site, glad I did.   November 17, 2008
    I bought this book for my kid because it was recommended on mysterytutor.com, and I have to say I'm glad I did. The questions are different from what he was working on before, which was one of the Barron's books, just like the guy on the mystery tutor site said they would be. It just makes sense to use real questions to get ready for the test, especially when it's an important one.

    Some other reviewers have written about how the book doesn't provide solutions, and I agree that that's a problem, but if you go to the mystery tutor's forums you can get all of those solutions for free, so that way you can still use this book of real questions and not have to go with some other company's fake questions, but still have explanations.

    The book is full of real practice questions just like it says it is, and it's the only book of practice questions you should be using! Get it and don't think twice.



    3 out of 5 stars The Official SAT Guide   November 16, 2008
    This book NEVER arrived. It was cancelled the same day, reorder from another vendor and also cancelled. Finally, my daughter's boyfriend found her one, almost too late and they studied together. The Guide was helpful but would have been better if delivered and on time.
