 | SAT Vocabulary Express: Word Puzzles Designed to Decode the New SAT by Jacqueline Byrne
Buy used from: $1.10 I would not use this book on a day-to-day basis but on a weekly basis. It's a great way to "sneak" in the vocab words students need for the reading section of the SAT

 | 500 Key Words for the SAT, and How to Remember Them Forever! by Charles Gulotta
Buy new: $12.69 / Used from: $12.69 This is the main vocabulary text we use in my class. I do not do the pages in order, as it is harder for students to study strict alphabetical order, so I will do something like pages 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, etc. Some of the words have little cartoons but all have clues for remembering them

 | The Rocket Review Revolution: The Ultimate Guide to the New SAT (2006-2007 Edition) (Rocketreview Revolution: The Ultimate Guide to the New SAT) by Adam Robinson
Buy new: $19.77 / Used from: $15.95 I use this book primarily to give introductions, strategies and directions for the reading and writing sections of the SAT. I think the explanations the author gives are right on target, especially regarding what the graders expect on the SAT essay.

 | How to Prepare for the SAT: 2007-2008 (Barron's How to Prepare for the Sat I (Book Only)) by Sharon Weiner Green
Buy used from: $1.16 This book has great practice tests and explains the answers. It's easy to use and the students understand it. (we have not used the CD ROM so I can't say how good it is or isn't) but for personal use, I would purchase the copy with the CD ROM)

 | Critical Reading Workbook for the SAT (Critical Reading Workbook for the Sat) by Sharon Weiner Green

 | Writing Workbook for the New SAT (Barron's Writing Workbook for the New Sat) by George Ehrenhaft
Buy new: $10.19 / Used from: $7.48 For students who need to review and practice their writing skills this is excellent. Most of my students assume the "writing" section of the test means the essay, and are surprised at the difficulty they have with the test of written expression.

 | Pass Key to the PSAT/NMSQT (Barron's Pass Key to the Psat/Nmsqt) by Sharon Weiner Green
Buy used from: $0.01 This is a great little reference book that I use as a supplement to my SAT prep books. Students are often confused about what to expect on the PSATS compared to the SATs. Clear and concise

 | SAT Test Prep Set 2007 (4 vols) by Peterson's
Buy used from: $105.72 I don't have the Math book that is included in this set, but if I were buying for my own child I would definitely invest in this set. It's a good deal
