Gain experience by taking 8 practice tests and receiving estimated scores.

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.

User Comments about the The Official SAT Study Guide

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:Official SAT Study Guide Solutions Manual: 2007-2008 Edition

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

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

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. 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. Get it and don't think twice.

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