11 of 12 people found the following review helpful: It has everything it's supposed to: not too much nor too little, December 26, 2005 Reviewer:Renegade (USA) - A very adequate Book! This book covers various types of questions for the Reading sectoin and the Writing section. It has lots and lots of practice for reading section but could have more for writing (the practice tests on the back can cover that). It breaks down the reading section into two sections for each type of questions: Sentence completion and Reading. It has all the information you need for each section and tons of practice questions for you to improve your skills. Writing section is analyzed with many questions that contain the most common types of grammatical errors that are tested on the test. If you learn all those types and practice with the practice tests, you should do fairly well on the test. For the essay part, it gives bunch of useful tips along with some sample essays with grader's comments. This book also has the SAT High-frequency word list with 800 words that frequently appear on the SAT. It doesn't have any useless information so doesn't overprepare you. It has just everything a SAT verbal workbook should have. Therefore, I highly recommend this book to everyone. Other Books: Princeton Review's Reading and Writing workbook is very short and inadequate. I wouldn't recommend it. Kaplan's SAT reading workbook has tons of problems and so that book's pretty good. Kaplan's SAT Writing workbook isn't as thorough as Barron's but it's good enough to give it a try. For studying SAT overall I would strongly recommend the Maximum SAT which is the best SAT prep Book I have seen. It is really helpful to study along with the Official SAT Study Guide by collegeboard.
Book Description
Concentrating on the Critical Reading section of the newly structured SAT college entrance exam, this test-preparation workbook presents tips, questions, answers, and answer explanations for the section’s two main question types—sentence completion questions and reading comprehension questions—as well as extensive vocabulary Review. Both the sentence completion and the reading comprehension exercises are organized according to level of difficulty and presented in three sections, labeled from A to C. Students who master Level C in both parts are well on the road to achieving a high Critical Reading score when they take the actual SAT. This new workbook replaces Barron's Verbal Workbook for the New SAT, 11th Edition.
