Hi and welcome to my blog,

I opened this blog to help anyone who is preparing for his SAT.
I remember myself when I started - I was so lost and in such a panic.
Luckily I got this great SAT guide that helped me a lot . So study hard and good luck!



I can’t decide between the book from Barron’s or the book from the Research and Education Association? they’re both around the same price, the barron’s has 8 sample tests and the other has 6. The research and education association one can come with a CD though. Are CDs helpful for these test (we don’t take the actual test on a computer)? If anyone has used either please help me decide….thanks

PostHeaderIcon Should I take the TestTakers SAT prep course?

I’m a high school junior and I’m taking the SAT probably in May.
I’ve never done any PSAT or SAT prep course before, but I have taken the PSAT twice. First score was 176, second was 181.

So should I take any SAT prep course at all? TestTakers is doing a program at my school, and it’s slightly over 1k. Has anyone heard of it and can tell me if it’s worth the money? What about the Princeton Review course? How much is that one in comparison to TestTakers?
Thanks in advance. :D

PostHeaderIcon SAT Preparation Doubt?

I’m not much familiar with the procedures of SAT. And, I’m not an American resident. So, I have this doubt.

@ Are Physics & Chemistry there for the exam ?
@ Or is it just Maths ?
@ Why the hell are they checking our language skills too much when we are looking for Engineering and pure science-oriented learning ?

P.S: I don’t believe that one needs to critically analyse Shakespearean poetry to become an engineer. Thats awkward. :(

PostHeaderIcon What is the best laptop to buy?

k for christmas, i got a hp desktop but decided to return it cause i dont need a computer that powerful. So i decided to buy a laptop for school use and around the house. Since i’m getting it for school, i’ll be lookin at some of the netbooks, 10 inch screen. I have no clue what to get, i’ve got it down to around 3 or 4. The main uses i will get out of it will be for schoolwork, music, internet, and maybe some videos and pictures.

-HP Mini 1000 XP
-Samsung NC10

-Dell mini 12
