Product Description:
You’ve been hearing about the SAT since the day you entered high school. Guess what? It’s time. So when you walk into that testing hall, will it be a case of nerves—or attitude? A guerrilla guide written by six students who destroyed the SAT, Up Your Score combines the best math, critical reading, and essay preparation with the strategies and tips you need to psyche out—and not be psyched out by—The Test. As Sassy magazine said, “It’s everything you need to give ’em hell.”

After taking the SAT once, I decided I needed to prepare better for the second time around. This book raised my score by over 100 points. While it doesn't necessarily provide study material, it provides strategies to go about taking standardized tests particularly the SAT's. This book changed my life and I would suggest it as a supplement to other SAT prep books for someone looking to drastically raise their score.

I took my SATs about 4 years ago. The very first time I took them, I did fine but not good enough. After that I bought this book and it helped me get 200 points higher! The vocabulary list is amazing and so funny! I still remember some of the comics and sentences from the vocabulary section and they still make me laugh. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone that doesn't want to just take practice tests over and over again.

I took the SAT back in 2001, and this book raised my verbal score by close to 170 points. Seriously, I took a practice test, got a 620, spent 3 weeks studying the word lists in this book, took another practice test, got a 790 (I also got a 790 on the real thing). I didn't use anything else. I also didn't learn anything in school because it wasn't in English. This book is awesome. I still remember the words that I learned using this book!
You won't regret it!

I took the SAT's the very first time 2 years ago when I was a junior and I was to take it again fall of my senior year so I planned to spend summer studying. I took classes at Sylvan learning center (great!) and had Princeton Review's SAT book and book of practice tests, flashcards, and Kaplan's book. I could not find a way to focus for too long with any of those, so I went on Google to search for an SAT book that maybe had some jokes or was a bit entertaining and I ran across this book.
The book teaches you but still takes breaks in between to do have a little cartoon or tell a joke. It is great! They also give really great tips. For the very first time I actually found studying for SAT's fun. Also the jokes and everything are a great way to help you remember things. I definitely recommend this book for anyone who is studying for the SAT's! With the SAT classes and this book, my score increased 200 points.
also they have a free thing for you ipod so you can listen to vocab words in a song or something like that.

No actual problems in this book, but still very very useful. I used it along with a generic study book for practice problems. It's hilarious, it has a great vocab section, and it teaches you strategies and tricks and tips. My reading score went up to 770 (from 710) the second time I took the SAT, after reading this book.
