Good review for basics, watch out at the end, Jun 29 2009

This review is from: Barron's SAT Subject Test Chemistry (Paperback)
I took the chem SAT after using this book and got a 740, which isn't bad. This book has a great review of the simple things, however, the end of the book goes waaaaaay too far into detail. The electrochem and nucleonics chapters are in so much detail, that you could spend hours and hours studying every tiny thing, when almost nothing show up on the test in those chapters. After learning Ox-Redox and Organic, you should spend the vast majority of your time in the first 8-9 chapters. Pay particular attention to the areas on solutions, acids and bases, and molarity/molality concentrations. Just be careful where you spend your time with this book.

Great review of chemistry, albeit a bit harder than the real test, Nov 21 2008
By Josh Boone - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Barron's SAT Subject Test Chemistry (Paperback)
This is an excellent book to review chemistry before taking the big test. It explains general chemistry in a very clear way (especially quantum mechanics). Like all books, it does have a few errors (1 km does not = 100 m, pg 58). Overall though, this is definitely worth $12 for the extra 200 points.

Great Help to Score 800 on SAT Chemistry, Jan 25 2011
By Leonard Mayer "Instructor" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Barron's SAT Subject Test Chemistry (Paperback)
I taught this book to some students at a private school. Then I studied it myself and took the SAT Chemistry test. I especially loved the CD from the previous edition and the practice tests. I did the diagnostic and all practice tests. You have 1 hour to complete 85 questions. When I first did the practice tests, I got about 12 wrong out of 85. Then a few days later I got 4 wrong out of 85. The day before the test I got 0 wrong out of 85. With repeated practice you can finish 85 questions in 1 hour and get most if not all right. When I took the actual test, I completed the test in 55 minutes. I got all questions right. I highly recommend this book for getting a high score on SAT Chemistry exam. But you should focus on the practice tests and developing speed and accuracy. All my other references were of minor help compared to this major reference and study guide. Using this book, I got 800. The practice tests at end of book and the tests on the CD ROM are extremely helpful.
