Real SAT II: Subject Tests

The two keys to success on standardized achievement tests are relaxation and preparation. They depend on each other, of course, as what could relax a tester more than knowing what to expect? If any SAT II Subject Tests are in your future, the College Board's got all the answers (and all the questions) you'll need to wield your No. 2 pencil with confidence and flair. Since they write and administer the SAT, Real SAT II: Subject Tests is authoritative and believable. Using recent actual tests in 18 subjects--writing, literature, American history, world history, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, and 10 languages--the book evokes the look and feel of the real thing. Just convince a friend to sit in front of you looking unhappy, and you're all set!

While the practice tests are the meat of the book, there is some gravy. The College Board explains exactly how each test is graded, the best strategy for each type of question, and when to take each test (some are best taken right after a class is finished, others after the material has settled a bit). Additional instructions for obtaining free tapes for the language tests and for scoring essay tests over the Internet are included, making this the most complete guide to the SAT II Subject Tests. Put your pencils down now. --Rob Lightner
