If you need to review the math tested on the SAT, then this book alone will not be enough. However it is excellent in helping to refine test strategies which have a big impact on scores. Knowing which questions to skip and which to attempt is important. You can actually score higher answering fewer questions as long as they are correct. The author is the real deal, he was my tutor and used his books together with lots of practice tests. He is an experienced math tutor and his SAT prep is logical and proven. Review/learn the basics, know how to take the test and practice, practice, practice.
My daughter is a very good math student, but her SAT scores did not match her ability. She did not need to know any more math, rather what she needed to know was how to take the test. By providing a variety of techniques to try, this book helped her adapt to the test, including how to manage her time and move at the best pace for her. The result was a 780 on the math SAT. I highly recommend using this book in combinaton with lots of practice tests.
Let me start with title. The title of the book in MISLEADING at best. There is no Math secrests in the book. This book worth nothing. I am surprised how it got two very high reviews. I hope those were not entered by someone who want to promote this book. Any prep guide has more secrets than this book. I wish I could return this book.
