10 Practice Tests for the SAT (SparkNotes Test Prep Series)

math errors made me scream

This book is so full of math errors that it actually made it difficult to practice. After the first couple of tests, when I got an answer that didn't appear as a choice, I began to second guess the test instead of myself. Some of the triangles shown can't exist. (Third-side rule) Almost every test has an error in it. These errors would have been easily noticed if the editors had actually taken the tests in the book. (Didn't they say they went to Harvard??)

not the best.

its not the best, so why would you buy this? the SAT isn't a test for you to study on an 'okay' test book. Instead, you should consider the best study material possible. Apparently, Sparknotes hates editing. The fact that it was created by harvard students might sound really appealing, but its just for show. A book made by an organization specialized in creating a study guide should be more considered.

just way too many mistakes in the math section

Math is my strongest point on the SAT and this book made me frustrated on many counts by the amount of errors in the math section. There were cases where two correct answers were in the answer choices and other calculation mistakes. In addition, some of the geometry problems ask to find the perimeter of a shape that is impossible to construct. If you are interested in improving your math on the SATs, I suggest that you steer clear from this book.

Just too many mistakes

I really like the math questions - there are some very original ones that provide you with an opportunity to hurry up and figure out something new, just like one needs to do on the SAT. However, there are just too many errors. In working five tests, I found one problem with an incorrect illustration, one problem where two of the answer choices were correct, and one problem where the answer was incorrectly calculated. It's a shame that something with so much potential was allowed to go to press with such sloppy editing.

All You Need To Succeed

This book was wonderful in helping me prepare for the SAT Reasoning Test. The practice exams helped me to understand the format of the test. I also learned new vocabulary that helped on the test. This book contains answers and explanations to all of the questions, which is really a helpful tool. In the end, I scored a 2110 out of 2400, and I couldn't have done it without this book.
