The 3 Most Frequently Used Books for SAT Prep and ACT Test Prep
A good way to prepare for the SAT and ACT exam is to practice “real past tests”. Typically, you can get the “real past tests” from official books published by the CollegeBoard and the ACT Org. Over the past few years we”ve worked with hundreds of tutors and thousands of students and here are the three most frequently used (or preferred) books used for SAT and ACT Prep:

Thanks for sharing Raju, these are all great books indeed. I would definitely recommend this to others.
I found these books to be really educational in helping students with the ACT and SAT, espcecially me, I can remember buying SAT Prep book back in High School, what a tough test! Could of used some tutoring to help me too, always good to have someone tutoring me instead of trying to figure it out all on my own. But I would also suggest the newer versions of the SAT and ACT test prep books, because they change the material every year.
These books form the foundation of our SAT and ACT studying. We repeat it over and over, but why reinvent the wheel when the test-makers put out sample questions?
We do have an ebook companion for the SAT that we offer students, so even if they do not work with a tutor, they still have thorough explanations of answers.
