Hey guys..I would like to improve my SAT score from an 1170 to hopefully a 1300! However, I don't have a lot of cash to spend on prep courses or even SAT books. Do you all know a website or something else i can do to improve my SAT scores cheaply. I know many of you all will tell me to get the 10 Real SATs book but does it actually teach you how to do the problems and how they got the answer.
Thanks

If you're a California resident, the UC system offers a pretty in depth studying program online for free. You can search their site to find it; shouldn't be difficult, they're very proud of it.

go to the library and see if they have any prep books! you can just check them out and use them. i know ours has a pretty good selection (barrons, PR, Kaplan, etc)! good luck!

Sunshine said it all.
Library has everything u need.

You could goto a bookstore, get the books -- dont write anything in them and return them within 30 days.
