In March 2005, the College Board will begin to administer a new SATฎ. To help prepare all students for the new SAT and college success™, the College Board introduces:
The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT
Here's the successor to the College Board's #1 best seller 10 Real SATฎs. This new book is the only one with practice tests created by the test maker according to proprietary new SAT specifications. With the book's 700+ pages and 21 chapters, students:
- Gain experience by taking 8 practice tests and receiving estimated scores.
- Raise confidence by reviewing concepts, test-taking approaches, and practice questions.
- Increase understanding of the new PSAT/NMSQTฎ and the new SAT.
Plus, book buyers receive free online score reports and a discount on The Official SAT Online Course with auto essay scoring.
Changes to the new SAT include:
- The name of the current SAT verbal section will be changed to critical reading, analogies will be eliminated and short reading passages will be added to existing long reading passages.
- A new section called the SAT writing section will be added, which will contain multiple-choice grammar and usage questions and a student- written essay.
- The SAT math section will be expanded to include topics from third-year college- preparatory math (also known as Algebra II); in addition, quantitative comparisons will be eliminated from this section.
The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT is part of the College Board's new SAT Readiness Program of print, online, and professional development resources.
