About this title

Review

"I was really impressed! It gave me insight of an easier way to look at a problem...one of the best study skills books I've come across." -- Ms. Amneris Gonzalez "Instructional Support Services, Secondary Math, LAUSD"

"In stark contrast to the 'teacher in front of a chalk board'...the presentation is personal, conversational, relaxed, and effective." -- Peggy Dominy "Liaison Librarian for Science & Math, Drexel University, PA"

"Amy Lucas brings more than a decade of tutoring experience at the highest levels of the tutoring/test prep industry to this production. Starting with math vocabulary and then offering a discussion of the range of SAT problems from algebra to geometry to functions, this series offers the student the broadest coverage of the SAT math section." -- Library Journal "Math section review"

"I like the informal approach that the author uses to get on the student's level about the topics. Identifying each example and exercise with its relative difficulty also gives students a better sense of what to expect on the exam." -- David Hammett "Math Department Chair, Oakwood School, Los Angeles"

"Lucas divides the test into four categories...and further breaks these categories into understandable chapters so that the complexity of both the subject and the test is reduced. Ten chapters provide step-by-step instructions and simplify concepts by utilizing illustrated sample problems as well as comprehensive drills at the end of each lecture." -- Linda M. Teel "East Carolina University, Greenville, NC"
