Review every skill and question type needed for SAT success – now with eight total practice tests.
The 2018 edition of The Official SAT Study Guide doubles the number of official SAT® practice tests to eight – all of them created by the test maker. As part of the College Board's commitment to transparency, all practice tests are available on the College Board's website, but The Official SAT Study Guide is the only place to find them in print along with over 250 pages of additional instruction, guidance, and test information.
With updated guidance and practice problems that reflect the most recent information, this new edition takes the best-selling SAT guide and makes it even more relevant and useful. Be ready for the SAT with strategies and up-to-date information straight from the exam writers.
The Official SAT Study Guide will help students get ready for the SAT with:
• 8 official SAT practice tests, written in the exact same process and by the same team of authors as the actual exam
• detailed descriptions of the math and evidenced based reading and writing sections
• targeted practice questions for each SAT question type
• guidance on the new optional essay, including practice essay questions with sample responses
• seamless integration with Official SAT Practice on Khan Academy
Why buy this book? I am a private math tutor and author of A Guide to the Math SAT . The 8 official practice tests in this book are indispensable (therefore five stars) but they are the same as the ones posted on the College Board and Khan Academy web sites, so it is reasonable to ask, “Why buy this book?”The main reason is that students should take practice tests using pencil and paper because that is how the SAT is administered. Practice should mimic the real thing. You will find it easier (and possibly cheaper) to buy this book rather than download and print these tests.Like its predecessor, this edition of the book does not contain answer keys and scoring curves. You will have to take a photo of your bubble sheet and use an app to calculate your score, or view the answer keys and scoring curves on the College Board web site to calculate your score by hand.Another reason to buy this book is to get access to some supplemental materials. In my opinion these are not particularly helpful and the more helpful parts are also posted on the College Board web site, including check lists for what to bring on test day, sample problems that are not included in the practice tests, etc.Overall the only compelling reason to buy this book is convenience.Complicated math explanations This book will not help you understand how to solve math problems in an efficient manner required when taking a timed test. The practice problems have long, creative ways of solving problems rather than straightforward ways to get to the result. I am sure this must be thrilling to a math geek. But to someone who Is just trying to get a good score, the author (s) seem like show-offs, displaying the most abstract ways to solve a math problem, while avoiding explanations in the problem solving processes. If you follow the process they use to solve math problems in this book, you will not finish the test in time, plain and simple.
