<p>And No im not talking about John C Calhoun,Henry Clay, and Daniel Webster. Im talking about SAT books, i just ordered Direct Hits Vol 2, Grubers complete SAT guide, and Rocket Review. Is this the best possible combo of books i can get, and how well will they prepare me for the SAT in december? (I already have the blue book)</p>
<p>the great triumvirate would be</p>
<p>Barrons (for writing practice ONLY. Math and CR are so messed up, you’ll never see stuff like that on the SAT), Grubers (for math ONLY, see Barrons explanation), and blue book (EVERYTHING!)</p>
<p>also, sign up for the online SAT course, you’ll get six more practice tests! amazing practice, too. </p>
<p>so there ya go.</p>
<p>i used all these resources and went from a 1610 to a 2250 in 10 months</p>
<p>Barron<code>s 2400 club is great book too.And the math sections on Barron</code>s how to prepare for the SAT is quite difficult,but if you understand the explanation and sample problems ,you won`t face anything difficult on the real test.</p>
<p>no, you don’t need to pay for cb’s online course to get the tests. They are all over the internet now…</p>
<p>As a great rhetorician, Daniel Webster would undoubtedly have used both volumes of Direct Hits. Clay the compromiser and conciliator would undoubtedly have used the Rocket Review. And the dogmatic Calhoun would have undoubtedly agreed with StrangeIndianfoo, Barrons for Writing practice only!</p>
<p>Here’s what Gossip Girl’s Great Triumvirate of stars would use: As a stellar student Blair would use Barrons SAT 2400. The conscientious but sometimes pedestrian Dan Humphrey would use Rocket Review to propel him out of Brooklyn and into Dartmouth or Yale. The always devious and unscrupulous Chuck wouldn’t use any of the books. Chuck would find a way to see the test ahead of time. And what about the omniscient Gossip Girl herself? She would unquestionably use both volumes of Direct Hits because of all its amazing pop culture examples.</p>
<p>Which books would the Great Triumvirate of High Renaissance artists have chosen? The versatile and eclectic Leonardo da Vinci would probably have used Rocket Review because of his interest in flight. The meticulous Raphael would probably have used Gruber’s because of his penchant for geometrically precise compositions. And what about the tempestuous and vain genius Michelangelo? The Divine Michelangelo would have undoubtedly have enjoyed reading Direct Hits since he is used as an example in both volumes.</p>
<p>What SAT prep books did High School Musical’s “Great Triumvirate” use. The earnest but limited Troy probably studied the Rocket Review’s standard but useful advice. The always devious Sharpay undoubtedly loved the Princeton Review’s tips and strategies. She would have especially liked the Joe Bloggs approach since Troy is a handsome personification of Joe. And finally, the cerebral Stanford bound Gabriella almost certainly studied Direct Hits’ list of 100 Level 5 words.</p>
<p>^Very clever. What SAT prep book would the Great Triumvirate of contemporary rappers Fiddy, Jay-Z and Eminem choose? All three love words and all three would choose Direct Hits. Fiddy would love DH because he is featured in several examples. Jay-Z would love Direct Hits because he is quoted to illustrate a simile (“You know the type, loud as a motor bike but wouldn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight”). And Eminem is an iconoclast who would love the witty Direct Hits raps making fun of K-Fed (“K-Fed, you COVET wealth and fame, But you got no game”).</p>
<p>wait how do u get the sat online course for free</p>
<p>^ Props for these clever posts. How about the famous Second Triumvirate of Octavian, Lepidus and Mark Antony. The prudent Lepidus would have stuck with the Blue Book. The mercurial Antony would have risked all by going with Barron’s SAT 2400. And the shrewd Octavian would have combined the vocabulary from Direct Hits, the Princeton Review and the Rocket Review to give him overwhelming power and mastery over the SAT.</p>
<p>or maybe we’re talking about the First Triumvirate of Julius Casear, Crassus, and Pompey</p>
<p>Very clever posts. Can anyone think of any more Triumvirates?</p>
