Reviews

[Mars Smith]

Pro: This book will definitely help prepare you for the SAT Biology exam. Before reading it, though, choose if you want to study molecular biology or ecology first. This will save you an immense amount of time. The book covered practically everything that was on the exam. I would recommend this book to someone studying for either of the two versions of the exam.

Con: It would have been better if there were more scenario-based facts and questions. Most of the exam was scenario-based. When I took the exam, I did not feel prepared for those type of questions.

It's a pity there is not enough Practice Tests... However, it was the most closest version to the original test.

[Ryan Ahmed]

not logically written to actually convey learning

[Jonathan]

Decent prep book, review problems aren’t that good, content is specific for some section, but does not cover everything

[Berke Sahbazoglu]

Excellent book for sat biology. In depth coverage with helpful practice questions. Tests were realistic and reinforced learned topics. Only complaint is that this book has a little bit extra information. Not as much as barrons biology but still more that could mean 1-1.5 more weeks of studying.

[Karisa Liu]

Very helpful, but I still need to use it with Barron.
