$29.99	SAT 2400 384 pages. Linda Carnevale, M.A., and Roselyn Teukolsky, M.S.
	Most college-bound test-takers already know that 2400 represents a perfect score on the new SAT. This book focuses on meeting the needs of top students who believe they can approach that perfect score when it’s time for them to take the SAT. The authors skip past obvious test-taking strategies, coaching students on the do’s and don’ts of smart test-taking, using focused and effective techniques. Their goal is to help top students score 700 or above on all 3 sections of the SAT—Critical Reading, Writing, and Math. A score of 2100 or higher will set test takers apart by placing them in the top 5% of high-achieving students, and virtually guaranteeing them acceptance to the most prestigious and challenging colleges. The authors present strategies for tackling the hardest questions on the SAT. Critical Reading strategies are given for both long and short passages. Coaching for the Writing Section covers essential grammar for the 3 question types and guides students on how to write an exemplary essay in 25 minutes. The Math Section reviews topics in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, statistics, and word problems. The book features many practice questions in all test areas with thorough answer explanations. Appendices include upper-level vocabulary lists and useful math formulas. High-achievers will value this book as that extra leg-up to help get them scholarships and gain admission to the college of their choice.

	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.

$24.99	WRITING WORKBOOK FOR THE SAT 3rd Edition; 416 pages. George Ehrenhaft
	The restructured SAT exam that became effective in 2005 includes an entirely new and very important Writing Test, which consists of two main parts. First is a 25-minute period during which students must write an essay on a given topic. Later, students must answer multiple-choice questions that test their skill in correcting poorly-written sentences, finding mistakes in grammar and usage, and correcting mistakes in the first-draft version of a student essay. This manual familiarizes students with all aspects of the SAT Writing Test and presents review chapters and questions with answers that are designed to hone test-takers’ skills. Also included is a helpful overview of the Writing Test and details on how student essays are scored. This manual presents five writing tests. The first introduces students to the test’s format and the following four are similar to the actual SAT writing test in length and question types. All tests have answers and explanations, and come with instructions on how students can convert their practice test score to the familiar SAT scale of 200–800.
