Are the SAT questions more difficult than the PSAT and the sites practice questions?

So I have been practicing for the SAT, I got this McGraw Hill book to study from and the questions seem to be all really really hard...I am getting most wrong. Yet, when I take the practice SAT questions on collegeboard's site I am getting most right; and with the PSAT I did fairly well and now after a year I went back on college board's site to see what I got wrong and I am getting most them right now... probably because I finished the full year of Algebra II now....unlike last year where I only had Geometry and just started Algebra II when I took the PSAT.

So, are the SAT questions similar in difficulty as College Board's practice SAT questions and the PSAT or harder?

The questions will be like the ones on college boards site, but if you can get yourself doing a lot of the ones in the macgraw book well, you'll do much better.

What if you do the online course offered by the college board? There are tests/quizzes there as well. It costs $69 I believe.
