Barrons is excellent, and i would recommend it, BUT you have almost NOOO time....i would go with Kaplan because its shorter (hence, only the MOST important things are concentrated on).....and heres some advice from personal experience....i got a 740 WITH an EIGHT!! out of twelve on the essay....iono how, ive always been a "good" writer...iono wat went wrong, but you should definitely avoid underestimating that section...make sure you write the way "they" (not your eng teacher) wants to see you write

so what exactly do "they" want to see? I also got an 8 and i'm clueless why (I'm not the best writer, but I thought I was 10 material).

i shoulda used 2 solid examples instead of 1 great one...i shouldnt of used all the big words i used (although i know i used em right)....i shoulda filled up all the lines...thats wat i have figured out (for now at least)
hope that helps
