5.0 out of 5 stars Organized presentation

F.A.C. · October 27, 2023

Can't recommend this Math study guide enough!! The material is organized, streamlined and a excellent review of the Math problems your student should have learned how to solve in high school. And if they did not learn it or have forgotten, this book teaches them how to easily solve them. Working through this book was a real confidence builder for my student. His Math SAT score improved over 150 points, enabling him to secure the best scholarship our state offers. The cost of this book came back to us many times over.

5.0 out of 5 stars great review book for both father and daughter

t. · August 29, 2019

My lovely daughter, and her lovely mom, were both skeptical that dad could help daughter improve her SAT math score.Rightly so. I finished my college calculus career in 1975.Then I found Nielson's Panda book, and we suddenly had a fun and practical way to review our algebra and other core skills required for the modern SAT.The book is not about pandas, but it reflects Nielson's panda-like, cheerful, and thorough approach for studying for the SAT math tests. Think of the movie "Kung-fu Panda" - this is Nielson's tough-love approach to mastering SAT math. There really aren't any shortcuts - you just have to do the work. He makes it practical and fun.Each lesson is self-contained, and reviews an important area that develops skills required for a brilliant score.The lessons can be taken in any order you desire, since they are self-contained. We studied exponents, then expressions (chap 6), then complex numbers, then equation solving, etc. Become a strong panda slowly, by building your skills in areas where you are weak, before moving on to lessons that require your newly honed baby panda skills.I take the lessons alongside my daughter, and allow her to teach me when necessary. She likes to race on the chapter review tests, and usually beats me.Neilson provides many additional resources on his web site, and other study guides as well. Don't pass those up.He really is a very productive panda-man, and I highly recommend his work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Serious book for serious scores without the fluff

A.C. · August 26, 2017

Having already had 2 students enter college, I have looked at a lot of PSAT/SAT prep materials over the years. It's hard to find any that are geared toward the more competitive students who already are performing decently but want to have confidence that they've fully cataloged ALL the types of questions, and want insight into the real 'gotchas' of the test. This book does exactly that, is straightforward to read, and doesn't waste your time with any nonessentials.While Nielson's book is indeed geared toward those aiming for seriously competitive scores, I'm sure it would also be helpful to those who just wanted to understand the "what" and "how" of SAT. Don't bother with the super-thick, fluff-filled guides churned out by the 'bigger' publishers -- too much bloatware in this books! They seem to think the page count justifies their cost, I guess. This book lays out the scope of the problem types in a no-nonsense manner. If you need a general introduction to 'what is the SAT', how long does it take, etc. then perhaps skim through the beginning chapters of one of those 'fluff' books. But then come use Nielson's for actual study/prep.One small criticism (not even worth a point/star off on review) is that, like ANY and EVERY prep book not directly published under CollegeBoard (i.e., CollegeBoard or Khan Academy) the problems are unofficial. Why is that important? Because the test authors have a *very particular* manner of authoring the problems (and answers) so they fit their standardized mold. (Which, by the way, is why all those practice tests in the 'big fluff' books are nearly worthless and even misleading. It's just more heft to justify the price.) So just be sure that if you use the CollegePanda then (as Nielson also tells you) do the REAL PRACTICE on OFFICIAL (new) SAT tests & practice questions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive SAT Math Prep with Practical Strategies

S. · September 27, 2024

The book offers clear explanations of complex math concepts and provides practical strategies that are essential for tackling the SAT. I particularly appreciated the well-structured practice problems that build in difficulty, helping to reinforce learning progressively.The detailed answer explanations are a standout feature, as they break down the thought process behind each solution, which is invaluable for understanding mistakes. However, some sections can feel a bit overwhelming, especially for students who may not have a strong math background. Overall, it's an excellent guide for motivated learners looking to excel in the math section of the SAT!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ultimate practice

Ultimate practice for digital SAT. I would highly recommend the book

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy if you are already good at math

K.E. · November 3, 2024

There is an easier version of the college panda math prep if Math isn't your strong suit. This book is really good though if you already find math fairly easy/doable. Otherwise I would recommend starting with the easier math book and working your way up to this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive Math Guide for SAT and ACT as well

S.B. · September 29, 2024

When it comes to standardized testing the mindset of solving is very important as opposed to a rigor alone approach. College Panda's quality of problems and challenges are HOT skills oriented ( Higher ORder Thinking ). I own a tutoring company and we are adapting this as our standard.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive material and practice

L. · August 19, 2024

New edition has comprehensive coverage of the material, and twice as much practice as previous editions. I use it with all my private students.

TOO LONG

F.T. · July 7, 2022

DO NOT buy this book if your intent is to have a quick review of the math you'll find is the SAT. I personally found the book questions a lot harder than the real SAT questions, and on top of that the concepts were explained in a way I found hard to understand. I didn't end up using this book, but instead found a lot more useful to study by actually practicing past SAT math test.

Great book with advanced problems

A.B. · September 6, 2020

The book is really great for the sat math as it covers all the topics and has plenty practice problems at the end of each topic the problems are tougher than what the sat tests which is a great thing for people who want to score above the 700 range.

Excellent

A.C. · June 3, 2018

Really nice book for the SAT math section. Only time will tell, but I am definitely feeling a lot more confident of the math section just from completing a couple of chapters. Explains the concepts really well.
