Sat Math: Advanced Strategies for Top Students

by Dan Celenti

Getting into the nation's most competitive universities requires more than a good SAT score-it requires a perfect score. The second edition of Perfect 800: SAT Math gives advanced students even more challenging practice problems and the tools needed to master the SAT math test. Covering areas including arithmetic concepts, algebra, geometry, probability, and more, the book offers exposure to a wide range of degrees of difficulty in a holistic approach that allows students to experience the "real thing," including the impact of time constraints on their performance. By emphasizing critical thinking and analytic skills over memorization and trial and error, this book maximizes the pace of progress as students prepare for the all-important test. The new edition includes 100 additional problems and more mind games to challenge students' math skills. This book includes access to an online test and an in-depth analysis tool that provides students with an assessment of their results and recommendations for an improved performance.

With more than 250 practice problems, this book provides the theory to all the concepts essential for the SAT. The best thing about it is that it starts off with basic, common theorems and then builds up on it to get to more complex topics. The topics mainly include Geometry, Trigonometry, Algebra, and Probability. I really liked the approach of this book which takes you step-by-step through topics; the mind games are challenging and the online test analysis was extremely useful. I would recommend Perfect 800 to anyone who wants to seriously improve their score!
This math mixture should get you a perfect 800 in SAT math section. All the best and Good Luck!
