IF YOU BUY ANY SAT BOOK--THIS IS THE ONE TO USE

I have tried everything--$1000 SAT prep classes (no help, they are only for students who have no idea what the SAT is), doing constant practice from the Official Study guide by College Board (kind of helped but there aren't any explanations for the answers!), funny vocabulary books to help memorize vocab, etc.

None of those really worked.

Until I stumbled upon Rocket Review. Everything in this book was SO USEFUL and fun to read too (it reads like a story that the author is narrating, not a boring textbook), with practice problems along the way, crucial tips, and an interactive CD.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK...if you are skeptical, just look for it at the library or something and read a chapter. The study tips are strange at first, but once you read his explanations into why they work--BAM. You understand how to not only take a test, but do math problems the easy way without all those complex calculations, save A LOT OF TIME on those long boring reading passages, etc.

I spent about 8 months trying to raise my SAT and took many practice tests. I had reached a plateau at around 2050-2070, and my parents were disappointed. I googled SAT prep books and bought this book and in just a month of studying over the summer (just reading the book, about an hour each day and doing everything it told me too--not very difficult), I raised my SAT score which I took in October by ***100 points*** which puts me in the range of all the colleges I am applying to as a senior now (Ivy Leage-level, etc). Before, I thought the Critical Reading section was IMPOSSIBLE. After reading this book, I found it to be really straightforward, pretty easy, and sometimes fun.

Get this book--it is a MIRACLE worker

BEST SAT review book out there

Adam Robinson's book is by far the best review book out on the market. If you are honest to yourself and sit down, read the book, and heed his advice, I GUARANTEE you your score will go up (even if you are already at the upper end of the spectrum). I took the new test once after reading the book cover to cover and my score shot up (compared to the old test) by two hundred points to the 2300s. You may cringe at the idea of using a formula for writing an essay, but follow it, and you'll do well. You may be taking multivariable calculus, but if you read what he has to say, your score will improve. Please, don't waste your money on tutors or review sessions; buy this book and the College Board's book of ten practice tests. This book is truly for anyone and everyone, no matter where you stand or how well you've done on previous tests.

Buy this book!!!!!!!

The Rocket Review Revolution is a wonderful book, which helped me get a great score on the SAT. Parts 1 and 2 - Basic Tutorials and Advanced Tutorials - include very helpful strategies for all three sections of the SAT. In Part 3 (the SAT Writing Test), I learned how to manage my time. This section also includes "100 words that really impress SAT graders," a list of common misspelled words, and specific tips for all parts of the essay. As for the multiple choice part of the Writing test, I learned about the errors most often tested. The critical reading section discusses exactly how to handle both short and long reading passages as well as sentence completions. The book also includes a list of the most commonly used SAT words - I memorized all of these words and received an 800 on the critical reading section. Finally, the math section is also well done - I got an 800! Many problems are interspersed throughout this section, which helped test my understanding. Furthermore, "the Best* Practice SAT Ever Created (*Most Instructive)" is very helpful. I definitely recommend buying The Rocket Review Revolution - your score on the SAT will certainly improve!

i would give 6 stars if I can

This book is by far the best I have seen. Adam Robinson knows what he is talking about- if you are going buy only one book, no doubt it is this.

Best All-Around SAT Book--I had all my SAT Students Read it

When I began teaching SAT courses I couldn't answer all the multiple choices for the reading or math questions myself so I read 13 books on the SAT to see if I could understand why the right answers were right so I could help my students (and keep from being embarrassed from not being able to answer their questions). After reading his book and doing the exercises I finally understood the basic principles and I was able to teach them to my students. I understood how the math questions were constructed and the best strategies for maximizing a student's score. I understood how the Critical Reading questions were set up and I taught this to my students and the results were amazing! This is definitely the best book on the SAT.
