 Rating:  - SurprisingI borrowed this book from the local library to help me study for the SAT II math IIC. After finishing the first two practice tests, I must say that I thought this book was complete rubbish. The practice tests did not seem indicative of the SAT at all (they contained so many of the same type of questions). The answer key did not provide detailed, step-by-step explanations. Basically, after correcting my practice tests, I was still as unclear on the questions that I left blank as I was when I took ... Read More Rating:  - Over-prep is always better than under-prep.Barron's is notorious for its overkill with practice tests in its prep books, and this one is no exception. Some would say that this is an evil spellbook that conjures horrible academic nightmares, in which the dean of admissions of the college of your choice laughs at you for missing 7+ on your Math IIc. But fear not! Like everyone else says, the real thing is nowhere as hard as what is found in this book. Don't be daunted by the endless formulas that it recommeneds you to memorize; the Math IIc ... Read More Rating: - Great prep book for people who have enough time and effortThe first time I took the SAT Math IIC test I got a 650. I wanted a lot higher. I am good at math and I know how to do almost all of the problems on the Math IIC test, but I was not fast enough to complete it. Barron's is a great prep book because they give harder problems than are on the actual test, so you will be really prepared. I took a practice test once a day about a week before the exam and I flipped through the review section. I made sure to time the test, since time was a major ... Read More Rating: - Excelent Book for doing "Practice" ProblemsThe barron book is very difficult for most students. Nevertheless its is a very good book for preparing for SAT Math2C. The way to use it is to treat its vast collection of test problems as merely practice problems, where you solve a few on your leisure. Only about 20-30% of the stuff is like the real test. But the vast collection of the test problems cover just about everything they can throw at you from the Real Test. Don't time yourself on the practice test because its often too difficult to ... Read More Rating: - I got an 800 after this bookWell, I'd actually rate the book as a 4.5 if there was that option. But I feel like rounding up because of my SAT II score. Even if you've completed geometry, trigonometry, or precalculus, sometimes you didn't learn the quick tips that help you get faster - thats what the first half of this book is for. It has reviews over every topic on the SAT II for you to look over and take away what you think is convenient. The second half is review tests. These are ultra-hard, and sometimes theres a mistake in ... Read More
