Does the Kaplan SAT prep class really help? Sometimes I find it hard to study at home because of certain distractions.

I took the Princeton Review prep class. I thought some of the stuffs that they taught me really do help.

That PR class costs 1000 dollars in my area, i dont think so. Does the Kaplan course really suck that much? Are there any other alternatives?

I took the kaplan SAT prep class last summer. it's all right. I'm not sure how much it helped me but it pushed me to study and practice. SAT prep classes do cost a lot, but if you find it hard to make yourself study it's worth taking it in my opinion.

most people I knew took the PR prep class. I think either kaplan or PR is fine (if you decide to take a prep class)...it's really up to you how well you want to do and how willing you are to practice as much as necessary to reach your goals. =)
