Kaplan Physics Practice Test

Hello everyone,


I am schedule to take the SAT Physics test on Jan. 26, and I've been studying with the Kaplan books.

In the practice tests in the back of the book I've been ranging from 680- 720 with every test.

My question is: are the Kaplan tests a good indicator of what you might get in the exam?

I ask this because I know some of the test in other books can be too hard or too easy compared to the real tests; for example, the Barron's practice tests are brutal...

Actually, I took 2 of the 3 practice tests in my kaplan and averaged 750. I am currently looking at Sparknotes, which is 10 times more thorough, so i'm pretty doubtful that kaplan accurately prepares you.

Kaplan's tests are a bit easier I'd say, and the book's contents are very superficial. For content, get Princeton.
