 Rating:  - Good book, but my son found mistakeBook is great for testing strategy and quality of tests.

This book teaches critical thinking strategies which are essential for not only the SAT, but other examinations ...

The math section is a great help. It shows great shortcuts, and ways to approach the "trick" problems. Though with that said, you still have to know Algebra, as it is not an Algebra help book.
