500 Key Words for the SAT uses pictures and stories to help you remember the meanings of five hundred of the vocabulary words that appear most frequently on the SAT. Learning is fast, fun, and forever! Also: a special section in the back provides tips for the critical reading part of the SAT. Remember, even with recent changes to the SAT, vocabulary is as important as ever to getting a high score.

I like the pictures. They help my 8-year old to remember well. I would recommend this item to young and old.

Okay.

This book is okay. It does contain some flaws. I think it would help me remember the words better if it had some visual aid. I recommend using SAT Vocabulary Cartoons better. Some of the ideas could have been made up easily by myself. It tends to get a bit wordy sometimes. Otherwise, this book could be a little bit useful.

Valuable vocabulary builder

As a high school teacher, I return to this book year after year for my AP English Language and Composition class and Honors English 11 classes. It familiarizes students with words they read in literature as well as offers definitions they will encounter on college entrance exams. The tips for remembering meaning are entertaining and effective. My students always enjoy the book.

Long-term Study Aid Only

My mother bought this book for me when I was in 7th grade and spent time going over words with me every day. I was able to finish it before I entered high school (I am currently a sophomore) and I still remember all of the words. I haven't taken the SAT yet, but I couldn't imagine using this book to study right before it. So I recommend that you purchase a different book if you are in a hurry because this book takes investing of time and energy.

To Everyone Who's Ever Gone Blank While Taking A Test

"Dedication:
This book is dedicated TO EVERYONE WHO'S EVER GONE BLANK WHILE TAKING A TEST, or said "profane" when they meant "profound," or wished they'd studied Latin when they had the chance.

But most of all, it's dedicated to those of you who believe you just aren't smart enough to learn.
Because you certainly are."
[from the book of the dedication]
