FOR USE IN SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES ONLY. It's almost here. The completely reorganized, revamped, new SAT is scheduled to be released upon the nation's high schoolers in March 2016. No longer will students be able to skate by using their older siblings' study guides, which means the need for Up Your Score: SAT has never been greater. And we're talking about a lot of kids. Last year, more than 1.7 million college-bound seniors took the test (the most ever), and 2016's group will be just as big. A complement and reality check to the mainstream study guides, this is the only book written by students (all of whom achieved perfect or near-perfect scores and went on to the colleges of their choice) for students. It's the book that kids recommend to one another, because it's as entertaining as it is effective.
