The real SAT?
I think I was deceived by those Prep book that was not CB's. Their practice tests were really hard, but when it comes to the BB, as I noticed in the key, there are so few hard questions and I got 24/24 questions right at the section 2, practice 1. I don't really know for sure, is it the type that the Real SAT brings into?

BB & QAS are the most accurate SAT you can get your hands on - QAS more so than SAT. That's what your "non-cb" prep books tend to do: overprepare you and it looks like they succeeded.

Are you complaining? Would you rather your prep books led you into believing you'd get a 2400 when you could hardly get a 400 on each section of the real thing?
