Did anyone take the SAT online course on collegeboard.com? Price is $70, but I have a $10 off coupon from the official SAT blue book. I'm thinking of taking it because it's developed by the SAT maker so it should be quite accurate. But is it helpful? If anyone took this course, please share your thoughts. Thanks!

I had it for free because my school bought it for every senior. ^^;

It's really helpful. You get to take 6 FULL *timed* practice tests and there are answers and explanations at the end. Some of them (if not all?) were real SATs from past years. There are also many mini practice tests as well. There's also helpful info such as reviews.

I would definately recommend taking the course.

Wow, you're lucky you got to take the course for free. What was your SAT score after taking this course? (if you don't mind me asking sweatingbullets.gif) If you took the SATs before taking this course and then again after, how much did you improve? Thanks!

myschool purchased this for everyone, so i have it for free
it's pretty good. i only did some of the quizzes.
they were pretty helpful, but overall, if you practice practice, you'll get better
i dont know if it helped me..but i guess i got a little practice
