Editorial Review: Product Description: It's the SAT guide that kids will actually enjoy using. And it's the one that works: The students who developed Up Your Score all aced the SAT and went to the colleges of their choice. Irreverent, credible, delivered with attitude, Up Your Score combines the best math, critical reading, and essay preparation with strategies and tips designed to help kids psych out The Test. Its witty, peer-to-peer voice—like getting advice from a good (and really smart) friend—makes the material so much easier to retain than the dry text of traditional test guides. And priced at $11.95, it's an economical alternative to expensive test-preparation courses, and an affordable addition, breath of fresh air, and reality check for the student who has a Princeton Review or Kaplan book. Includes: How to think like the SAT. How to prepare the essay in advance. Six hundred key vocabulary words (and proven tricks for actually remembering them). Insider math tricks. The best way to fill in answer circles, and other strategies to save precious minutes. Plus, tips for maintaining concentration, why it's always better to guess than to leave a question unanswered, and a recipe for energy-boosting Sweet & Tasty 800 Bars (and how to smuggle them into the testing hall). FREE: An online diagnostic test from PrepMe.com and an iPod download that helps students learn the 600 key vocabulary words. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Hilarious But Not HelpfulUp Your Score is an amazingly fun book to read about the SAT. With that being said, it will barely prepare you for the SAT. Yes, it may make the SAT bearable with funny passages and pop culture references, but beyond that, the book holds no prowess. The only useful think about this book is the Vocabulary Section. The sentences are full of puns so they make the words easier to remember. However, this book has NO practice problems or tests. I would not recommend buying this book solely if you're serious ... Read More Rating: - Good resource!I bought this small book for my niece and took a look at it. It seems very easy to read, practical, down-to-earth and humorous. It has useful examples of the most difficult types of problems, for instance, in math. A welcome change from some of the other, more stuffy, voluminous and boring study guides. I think this book will hold her attention and help her as she prepares for the SAT. Rating: - This book is amazing!Though I haven't read this 09-10 version, I've read the 05-06 version and it was amazing! The book is so funny- honestly, no one will want to stop reading! It has a "teenager attitude"- it goes along with the fact that yes, the SAT sucks, and yes, everyone hates it, that kind of thing. It kicks butt- I love it! I would recommend it to everyone! =]
