Cracking the SAT II: Writing & Literature, 2001-2002 Edition

The Princeton Review realizes that acing the SAT II: Writing & Literature exam is very different from getting straight As in school. They don't try to teach students everything there is to know about writing and literature--only what they'll need to score higher on the exam. There's a big difference. In Cracking the SAT II: Writing & Literature, The Princeton Review will teach test takers how to think like the test makers and:

* Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool test takers
* Ace the writing test by mastering the most important grammar rules
* Earn more points by learning to quickly identify sentence errors
* Write better essays by knowing in advance what the graders want to see
* Score higher on the literature test by more effectively analyzing prose, poetry, and drama

*** This book includes 5 full-length simulated SAT II exams (three writing and two literature). All of the sample test questions are just like the ones test takers will see on the actual exam.
