US HISTORY - Princeton Review books different from the test?

I just finished two practice tests from the princeton review's book (the world history and us history in one book version) and scored ridiculously high. Are these tests much easier than the real thing?

Yea I have the same question. There is some huge variability between the curve offered by the PR and other sites. Whats the deal?

They're pretty good, actually. The content review in the PR history book is easily the best out there.

and btw, it's not that hard to get an 800 on history, so you actually should be scoring fairly high if you know your facts.
