Customer Reviews

It Teaches Concepts

I'm a math teacher and have tutored a few kids for the SAT test. I reviewed many SAT study books and chose this one because it taught you how to solve math problems instead of focusing on eliminating answers and working backwards. I've found that solving problems using the correct method is faster. I'd recommend starting with this book and then learning the elimination tricks if you have additional time.

Best SAT Math prep book

I have never seen a better SAT math prep book than Bob Miller's. I used his other books before: Pre-Algebra, Algebra, and Geometry. Trust me, I've brought almost every SAT Math book out there. This helped me increase 100 points in the math section!

Math Made Easy!

Bob Miller takes very difficult concepts and makes them extremely easy to grasp. It is the one math book that will not make you tear your hair out of your head! The author uses a bit of humor and emotion to make math understandable to the average layman. The books are meant to be a supplement to whatever math text you are using. After Bob explains the concepts you will breeze through your textbook's examples. A great book at a great price!

Score booster

I loved Bob Miller's SAT Math for the Clueless. I hate math- it has always been my greatest weakness in school and especially on the SAT. In math class, I never really comprehend the material and only memorize what I need to pass the tests. But this just wasn't cutting it for me on the SAT. This book was perfect for me because I am clueless when it comes to math. The explainations and exercises where simple and easy to understand and i felt more confident on test day. In the book's introduction, Bob Miller promises that he can help students raise their score by 100 or more points. I raised my own score by 140 points and am very pleased with what this book offers.

A good review and stress-reliever

This book is good for any student who wishes to learn more about the SAT's and some basic techniques to use while taking the test. Miller reviews material which is on the "big test" and gives practice examples. In the answers to the practice examples, he tells you what you should have done. Miller also tells the reader things that the writers of the test do to trick you. After reading a few chapters and doing practice examples, I felt much better about taking the SAT's and after reading the whole book, I felt confident that I would do excellent.
