PR's Wordsmart, worth it?

I'm debating whether i should jump on this infamous PR's Wordsmart. It doesn't really focus just on SAT, so I'm feeling kinda suspicious on buying it. Should i jump on it? I already have the 800 words from Barron's, which I heard is very good (?). Should i go for wordsmart? or just use barron's, and read more?

You don't need another word list...using your existing list and just reading more will more than suffice.

I agree with the previous poster. Word Smart is pretty good, much better than Kaplan Word Power, but you're already using a better list.
