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 dont think Barrons has the same tests; they seem so ..idk, just so complex maybe
anyway, Thanks!

That depends on if you’re taking the Reasoning Test or the Subject Tests. I’ve been through a lot of books for both and it seems to me that Kaplan is just a little easier than the real Reasoning Test and the Princeton Review is just a little harder than the real Reasoning Test. I’d recommend going through both to get a good idea of the actual difficulty. Honestly though, the best practice I got was using Barrons. Barrons is INCREDIBLY hard and is way more difficult compared to the actual test. If you practice with questions that are very difficult, then you’ll do much better on the actual, easier test.
As for Subject Tests, Kaplan is definitely the BEST. I’ve taken three Subject Tests already and Kaplan had great review and LOTS of practice tests.
I thought that the Princeton Review was good, although slightly harder than the actual test. I haven’t used Barrons, though.
