2. The Black Book contains 600+ detailed, systematic, easy-to-follow walkthroughs for real SAT questions from the College Board, so you know that what you're learning actually works. You'll see every question from the first 4 official SAT Practice Tests attacked in a way that clearly demonstrates the ideal thought process on the SAT. (You'll need your own copies of those real SAT practice tests, which you can get for free from the College Board’s website. You can also find them in the College Board’s 2016 or 2018 “Blue Book.”)


3. The Black Book is a clear, concise roadmap to the SAT. (See the selected highlights below). It explains exactly how every SAT question works, and how to beat it in the least time possible.

Selected Highlights from the SAT Prep Black Book:

• Why the SAT isn’t designed like a high school test, and how this fact influences every aspect of the proper approach to SAT preparation…


• Why every SAT question can only have one valid answer, no matter how much it might seem otherwise sometimes…


• How to look at SAT questions the same way the College Board does when it writes them…


• Why it’s so important to work with real SAT questions from the College Board…and why you shouldn’t pay much attention to the College Board’s written explanations for those questions!


• The simple formula that allows you to crank out a top-scoring essay (that is, if you even need to take the SAT Essay in the first place)…


• The special grammatical rules that are followed by the SAT Writing and Language section…and how they sometimes differ from common usage in school…


• The unwritten rules for every kind of SAT question…


• And much more than we can fit in this space…
