    Practice books: OG (also known as Offical Guide) Kaplan SAT 12 sets.

    Princeton SAT 11 sets.

    McGraw-Hills 12 sets.

    If you don't have time to do anything else, og must do it once).

    Word Book: Basics: Liu Yi Basic 5000 and The Mystery of English Words.

    Highly recommended: The SAT Red Book edited by Yu Minhong.

    It is recommended that you go to the bookstore of Dangdangmai or New Oriental.

    New Oriental is relatively complete, but Dangdang is much cheaper, after all, imported books are not blown.

    The photocopied version seems to be a little cheaper.

    But!! LZ, now TPO has come out, and there are 13 sets up to now, and those are all ETS official real questions!

    So don't buy other TOEFL reference books!

    I bought the reference books of TOEFL in blue and red in Delta, and I also bought Barang's books, OG, but basically none of them worked! Therefore, I suggest that if you prepare for the TOEFL test, you can directly **TPO. There is a full set of ** on too stupid and sustenance.

    Don't be too little. It's already good to be done.

    SAT, SAT1 needs OG, and the official guide must be bought. There is also the "SAT11 Set of Questions" published by Princeton Review, which is sold both in excellent and dangdang. You don't have to buy the rest.

    At most, go to the vendors at the gate of New Oriental to buy past questions. **Some sell 80, black heart! Up to 50 to get it.

    It seems that there are still people who can do it at 30.。。。

    If you have SAT2, buy Barang. Barang's best.

    Well, that's all.

    Hope it helps.

    Photocopying is cheaper... Find some reputable ... The prints are still relatively clear.

    SAT Sense Requires Barron Synthesis (Yellowskin) The 3500 words in it are well worth memorizing.

    Princeton is better (this is highly recommended by a sister at Harvard...)

    The most important thing is the real question], buy a set on **.

    Actually, it's all about the same... It's up to you to do the question.,It's only not recommended to press kaplan.,It seems that there is only a cover that is updated every year.,3 Years ago, the content error has not changed... Ay.

    SAT Writing is analytical writing, and the grading criteria require candidates to be outstanding critical

    Thinking, this standard is far beyond the difficulty of the TOEFL essay test, so the most critical and time-consuming part of the essay is the idea building process. The TOEFL itself is a more life-like language test, which is very different from the SAT in terms of requirements. Let's take a look at the detailed comparison.

    TOEFL Writing and SAT Writing scores

    The TOEFL test is divided into four sections: reading, listening, speaking, and writing, and each section is worth 30 points out of 120. Among them, TOEFL writing is divided into comprehensive writing and independent writing, and if you want to achieve a high score, it is best to score more than 25 points in the writing section.

    TOEFL Writing and SAT Writing test formats

    After the TOEFL test was reformed in 2006, it was all computer-based (except for the domestic test in the United States). Therefore, the writing part needs to be typed out by the students through the keyboard, the test time is 30 minutes, and the required word count is more than 300 words.

    The SAT test is a traditional written test. The composition part requires students to use a pencil to complete on A4 size composition paper for 25 minutes, although there is no clear limit on the number of words, but according to experience, if you want to get a high score, at least two pages should be as full as possible, and the general default word count is more than 400 words.

    TOEFL Writing and SAT Writing Scoring Methods

    TOEFL Comprehensive Writing and Independent Writing, each section is modified by two teachers, each teacher gives a score range of 0-5, and finally the average is taken to obtain the original score of the essay. The combined writing and independent writing scores are added and divided by two to obtain the original score of the composition section, which is finally converted to a standard score of less than 30 points.

    The SAT essay is also changed by two teachers, and the score range given by each teacher is 0-6 points, if the difference between the scores given by the two teachers is not more than 1 point, the original score of the essay is directly added. If the difference is greater than 1 point, it will be given to the third teacher for grading, and the teacher's score will be multiplied by two to get the final score of the essay. The original score of the essay is combined with the raw score of the grammar multiple-choice questions, and the standard score within 800 points is obtained through the conversion table.

    TOEFL Writing and SAT Writing Scoring Criteria

    The TOEFL test is a language test, so the independent essay only requires students to elaborate on the questions given, and the writing can be one-sided.

    The SAT essay needs to show criticalthinking, so we should not be too absolute when stating our own opinions, we should consider the possible reasonableness of the other party's point of view, and in addition, we should be more demanding in terms of writing requirements.
