<p>I was looking around on Amazon, trying to buy as many good SSAT prep books that I could. Someone commented that using the Vocabulary Workshop books (levels A-H) let them know every word on the SSAT. Did anybody on here use this series? Was it helpful for testing? If so, should I get, and learn all the vocab from, all 8 books? Thanks so much!</p>
<p>Sorry, I’m going to be that person who doesn’t answer your question directly and says something else that seems useless. I found a really good place for SSAT vocab.

I used the first one when I was applying, and I think it helped immensely. The earlier you start, the better - I hugely procrastinated and it still helped.
I also got Vocabulary Cartoons. It’s a book that lets you remember words in a funny way.
Now I hope someone gives you a good answer. :)</p>
<p>Haha thank you, I already got the Vocabulary Cartoons and I really like them.</p>
<p>Freerice.com is pretty useful. Even though many of these words don’t appear on the SSAT, it will help improve your general vocabulary.

<p>Also not directly answering your question…but I honestly think you’d use your time better to read good, challenging classic books that use the vocabulary you want to study. And they give you something to talk about in essays and interviews and class next year. If you really want to study something, studying Greek/Latin roots and prefixes (you can find lists on line) will help you pick apart the inevitable words you’ve never seen before. Test prep books are valuable in teaching you HOW to take the tests…not so much on teaching actual content.</p>
<p>That said, freerice is a lot of fun… :)</p>
