Do study guide books for SAT’s really help that much?

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’m just curious with others opinions to see if study guide books for SAT’s are worth it that much or do u know anything else that can help me study well for the test
should i tell my freind that i used his laptop without washing my hands after suing the bathroom?
it was a #2 by the way. I feel so bad about it and I cant stop thinking about it. I know you can get disease like this. Do you think it is my responsibility to go get tested for disease or intestinal parasites? I would hate to think I would be the cause of him dieing or him passing on a disease and someone else dieing. I read that some parasites can be asymptomatic for up to 30 years and then cause cancer. I also feel like I will look at myself as a disgusting person for the rest of my life. What should I do?
Dog-sitting preparation?
I’m going away for 10 days and I’m leaving my puppy with my mom’s good friend. I feel so guilty but I don’t really have much choice. I know she’s going to give him as much love as she can. She even said she would send her cat to her mothers place while he’s there.
I was reading somewhere that I could leave one of my shirts with him in his bed so he can always smell me, but I’m also worried about separation anxiety; even though I might not even need to worry about it.
He’s almost 8 months old and I’ve had him since Feb. There’s no chance he won’t remember me when I get back right? Anything else that I can do to make his stay better?

Accessing files from my school network on my own laptop?
Hi! I have just bought a Dell XPS M1530 laptop. My high school in the UK uses the RM (Research Machines) computer network for all their computer systems, and I was wondering if there was any way for me to access my files from my own laptop via the wireless network if I were to take my laptop to school. Thanks!

Attention college students lugging laptops… what do you use?
I’m just going back to school this semester, and bought a laptop this week for use on campus. I would like to bring my [15.4” diagonal screen] laptop to school in the same bag as my textbooks and notebooks. Yes, I know I can get a laptop bag and use a backpack. I don’t want to, which is why I’m asking this question. What do you use? Do you buy a special laptop bag that has a lot of extra room for books? Do you buy a messenger bag or backpack made for school, and put your laptop in there (perhaps in a slim case to protect it?)
PLEASE provide websites or links or detailed descriptions for specific companies or bags so I can review them. Don’t say “Google it”. Anyone can do that, and it’s not helpful. TIA.

Why did the sound to my laptop go out?
Hi there,
Can any one help?? I don’t have sound on my laptop. I’ve been using the Altec Lansing portable Audio System (used for my Ipod) as my laptop speakers for almost a year. However, I moved my desk from one room to the next and when I was setting everything up once again, I completely forgot to plug in the Altec Lansing to the my laptop before I turned it (AL system) on. The AL metal part that goes in headphone outlet touched one of the USB’s and gave a loud sound and the laptop built-in speakers gave out.
I don’t know if the events relate, but the laptop built-in speakers aren’t working, my Altec Lansing speakers aren’t sounding, and some extra set of nonrelated speakers I plugged in to test sound do not work.
I think the problem definitely resides in the laptop, but what could it be? If it was simply the built-in speakers that weren’t working, wouldn’t the Altec Lansing and other extra set of nonrelated speakers still work?
Can I write off a laptop purchased for school and work?

Taking SAT Subject World History on the earliest day?
As I’m preparing to move on to my sophomore year in high school, I am wondering if taking the SAT Subject Tests earliest as possible will look better than later test dates on a college application.
Instead of taking World History classes, I feel as if I want to commit my time into study and preparation for World History SAT Subject by using World History workbooks (such as Barron’s, Kaplan, etc)
To those who have taken the test: Was the test difficult? Did you take time preparing and studying? Do you recommend taking the World History class first and then the test later a better decision?
