Kaplan Chemistry Prep Book?

My teacher recommend us either Barron's or Kaplan is good for prep. But I don't see much recommend on Kaplan for chemistry in CC. But Barron's would be harder than Kaplan to understand right? I need a full review for chemistry and aim for 700-800, also currently not studying in US so might not really know what's inside SAT chemistry syllabus.
Thank you~~

Get Barrons ASAP. I got 800 on the exam solely because of that book. Barron's go way over than the content covered by the actual exam, but it is just so comprehensive as to give every aspect of the chemistry. It is not hard to understand Barron's book!

I am also going to take Math Level-2 on upcoming October. Barrons is really amazing for Math Lv.2 (not just my opinion but a lot of CCers recommend Barrons for Math Level-2)! The review is comprehensive and also the practice tests are harder than real CB tests.

If I were you, I would go to bookstore tomorrow and buy the Barrons book since the test is about two weeks from now. Also I would recommend you reading The Guide to 800 on SAT Chemistry by great CCer named rshjark.
