The Perpetually Perplexed Parents' Guide to the SAT I

📖 The Scoop

Confusion and anxiety often reign when the time nears for high school students to take that all-important SAT I college entrance exam. And as often as not, moms and dads get caught up in the test preparation turmoil. All parents want their kids to excel on the test, and here's a book of advice outlining many things parents can do to help. Facts that everyone should know include how the SAT I is structured and how it is scored. What constitutes a good score, as opposed to a mediocre one? How, when, and where do students register? Can students try to improve a previous score by repeating the exam? Suzee Vlk explains all of this in detail. She also offers specific suggestions on how parents can help kids review for both the SAT I's math and verbal sections. Other features that parents are likely to appreciate include a list of test preparation books and videos they can obtain (including, of course, Barron's own SAT I manual), and the kind of encouragement that kids will find most helpful. Here's the book that takes the perplexity out of SAT I test preparation.
