| WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD!I reiterate my appreciation for McGraw Hill's SAT (and PSAT) prep books! My daughter used McGraw Hill's PSAT workbook to prep for her junior PSAT and the results were great! During the last winter break, she used McGraw Hill's SAT (and a couple of other books) to prep for the January 2009 SAT Reasoning Test. It was her first try and the results were similarly successful. She finds McGraw Hill's Writing Skills section superior to other prep books in that it categorizes SAT grammar into 15 user-friendly units, illustrating each rule with easy-to-understand examples, and reinforced with lots of practice exercises. Its CR section is based on a similar format, thus making its vocabulary lists easy to learn. Its math review is also good, but you may want to use a couple more specialized math workbooks (e.g. Barron's, Greenhall) for extra reinforcement. Just as invaluable are the authors'suggested SAT review schedule, insights and no-nonsense advice to prod you through an otherwise arduous SAT prep. With relentless practice with this book and a couple of others (College Board, Princeton), my daughter got perfect scores (800) in both CR and Writing, and near perfect score in Math. Not only did this book give her the time flexibility to prep for SAT at her own pace (amid a hectic midterm schedule), it also saved paying for SAT prep courses!

| A comprehensive resourceI was looking for guidance in what I can do to help prevent breast cancer, beyond the basic list of low fat diet, eating broccoli, exercising and avoiding alcohol. This book is an outstanding, comprehensive resource from a naturopathic standpoint. It goes into great detail on explaining hormones, estrogen's role in the cancer process, how chemicals and toxins in our environment contribute to the increase of breast cancer, what role the liver plays in detoxifying our body and how we can support the liver. The author also gives explicit recommendations on diet and supplements, what they do and how much to take, plus nontoxic alternatives to household cleaning products etc. Breast cancer prevention involves your whole lifestyle and some of the changes may be hard, but the benefits to overall health and our immune system can be enormous. You may not be able to make all the changes at once, but I for one am working on them. This book was written several years ago before the recent studies on the benefits of Vitamin D in breast cancer prevention. The author minimizes the importance of Vitamin D, which is the only real negative of the book, in my opinion. Actually, I would have also liked if she had gone into greater detail on thermography as an adjunct or alternative to mammography. This book is also helpful for women who have cancer, to help them support their bodies through treatment and to help prevent recurrences.

| For review, not for learning.This book should only be bought if the person planning to use it has already taken Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2 (and Pre-calculus if the person wants to take Level 2). The reason being is that it does not TEACH the topics one needs to know, only reviews them. You will have a very difficult time with this book if you haven't taken the courses mentioned before.
Also, I have found some errors in the book, but not too many.
That being said, if you simply want to brush up on the topics that you already know, I highly recommend this book; it is very organized and concise. However, if you haven't taken one or more of the above courses, I would recommed picking up something more comprehensive.

| Overall helpful bookAfter using this book in hopes of being able to tackle the "level 4" and "level 5" questions on the SAT I Verbal section I was not very impressed with the level of difficulty the Kaplan SAT Verbal Workbook provided. Most of the questions in the analogy and sentence completion section are the lower level questions on the SAT I Verbal. It is quite common for the last questions in the SAT I Verbal section to have very difficult vocabulary. However, in the Kaplan's SAT I Verbal Workbook, you will find questions that are labeled by CollegeBoard with a difficulty rating of somewhere around three, sometimes four, and very rarely, five. On the other hand, this book provides a very good set of problems in the Critical Reading Sections. In addition to an accurate model of the actual exam (to some extent), the answer explanations are very clear compared to other prep books. Overall, I would give this a 4 out of 5 because, while it does prepare you well for the SAT I Verbal, if the person using this book was only to use this book, he would discover on the SAT I that the analogies that are level 4 and 5 will be rather difficult for him. I am aware that there is a vocabulary section in the book, however, a large part of practicing analogies and sentence completion is getting used to using difficult vocabulary words in actual problems
