good customer service October 19, 2009 happycamper (Enumclaw, WA United States) We ordered the older version SAT book on a rush because the class our daughter was in wasn't updated to the new text. We paid extra $$ for shipping but the book was delayed in the mail and took almost 2 weeks to arrive. The vendor we used was apologetic and though realizing they couldn't control the speed of the US Mail they refunded our shipping on the book to compensate for the time it took. Classy move. We appreciated their customer service. The book was flawless by the way.
Very pleased with purchase October 1, 2009 S. Lappe (Palm Harbor, FL United States) Purchased the book used for my daughter. It was in excellent condition. I ordered on Monday & received it on Friday. Pleasure doing business!!
SAT review book September 5, 2009 Kathleen A. Carney (Boston, MA USA) I needed to contact the seller to ensure that I was receiving the correct edition. The seller responded promptly, to ensure that it was the correct edition. Most importantly, the price charged was significantly cheaper than other sources. I believe I paid under $10.00, and it was posted in the $90.00 range from other sources! That is what prompted me to ensure that it was the same book with such a price swing! The book arrived promptly, and was it great condition (like new) just as described!
Very good source August 31, 2009 JAD (Ashburn, VA USA) I purchased this for my son who is a HS sophomore, although I have used it more than he has.
It is very well organized and offers a lot of useful tips on the various types of questions. It explains why one answer is better than perhaps a similar one, which I found very helpful. There are a lot of practice questions and full-length practice tests as well. The book is broken up nicely into sections. In addition to the practice questions, it also provides useful test-taking tips.
It also provided guidance for the newest section on writing and good examples of the types of topics that will likely be provided. It gave good examples of a good essay, an okay essay and a poor essay, and provided specific pointers as to why one would be graded higher than another. I found this very valuable, since I thought some of the "okay" ones were pretty good - but it pointed out what was lacking.
I think that if I can get him to actually go through the book, it will be very helpful in preparing for the standardized exams in his future. I think the purchase price is very reasonable for what you get in this book, and it is an excellent value. I highly recommend it if you will be taking the SAT.
who knows...never got it August 21, 2009 Tara Mello 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I never received my purchase. I've exhausted all avenues of refund without so much as ever even getting a response. I'm sure the actual producst is very helpful, it just remains to be seen due to the fact I have not received it.
