<p>I made a thread yesterday, didn’t get the type of response I hoped for, so I will try again!</p>

<p>After doing some research on this forum, I have come up with a nice little study plan, and hope you guys can offer some suggestions and insight!</p>

<p>Some Background Info: I got a 1720 on my SAT, without much studying, and hope to get it up to about 2,000. I got a 610 in math, 560 in CR and 550 in writing. I hope to go up 100 in each section, which I feel is doable, since I can improve quite a bit in each section!!</p>

<p>Anyway, here’s my plan!</p>

<p>Get both copies of direct hits for CR- Core, and Toughest Vocabulary!</p>

<p>[Amazon.com:</a> Direct Hits Core Vocabulary of the SAT: Volume 1 2010 Edition (9780981818436): Larry Krieger, Ted Griffith:…](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Direct-Hits-Core-Vocabulary-SAT/dp/0981818439/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top/180-1708152-2923611]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/Direct-Hits-Core-Vocabulary-SAT/dp/0981818439/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top/180-1708152-2923611)</p>

<p>Critical Reading- Get the Barron’s Critical Reading guide. I read here, and most said Barron’s was good.</p>

<p>[Amazon.com:</a> Barron’s SAT Critical Reading Workbook (Critical Reading Workbook…](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Barrons-SAT-Critical-Reading-Workbook/dp/0764141953/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1279142057&sr=1-1]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/Barrons-SAT-Critical-Reading-Workbook/dp/0764141953/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1279142057&sr=1-1)</p>

<p>Math- I read Gruber’s was awesome… so</p>

<p>[Amazon.com:</a> Gruber’s Complete SAT Math Workbook (9781402218460): Gary Gruber: Books](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Grubers-Complete-SAT-Math-Workbook/dp/140221846X/ref=pd_sim_b_3]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/Grubers-Complete-SAT-Math-Workbook/dp/140221846X/ref=pd_sim_b_3)</p>

<p>Writing- Not to sure on this, but this book seemed very decent</p>

<p>[Amazon.com:</a> McGraw-Hill’s Conquering the New SAT Writing (9780071460767): Christopher Black:…](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/McGraw-Hills-Conquering-New-SAT-Writing/dp/0071460764/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1279142124&sr=1-5]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/McGraw-Hills-Conquering-New-SAT-Writing/dp/0071460764/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1279142124&sr=1-5)</p>

<p>Will cost me about 65</p>

<p>I also have the Princeton Review for general strategies, and the blue book for my practice tests!</p>

<p>Please let me know what you guys think, I am planning on ordering tomorrow, so please give me a green light, or let me know where I should make changes!</p>

<p>I want a book for each section however!</p>

<p>Why do you want a book for each section?</p>

3

<p>Nothing again?</p>

<p>Dayum I thought this forum was helpful</p>

4

<p>I think you don’t need all of those review books, really. Will you have time to look through all of them?</p>

5

<p>Ok you obviously haven’t done enough research… All you need is the CB Blue Book and Direct Hits if you want.

<p>I agree: there really is no need to get so many books - download a vocab list online, look over a book with grammar rules and/or math tips (you can spend few hours in the library), and take tests from the CB blue book…the best thing you can do for yourself is practice!</p>

<p>buy as many books as you can…
so, If she can afford these and work out a plan.
would not he applaud that?</p>
