Definitely a Score Booster!
By SAT Wiz - January 28, 2006SAT Dictionary.
This is the easiest and most efficient way to learn vocabulary words on the New SAT. Its way better to learn the vocabulary words than those enormous phonebook-sized SAT preps. I carried the Dictionary in my pocket almost all the time. When ever I had my spare moments, I flipped a page and Bam! (I'm learning new words.) Flashcards do not have the time-saving ability that this versatile SAT Dictionary offers. Furthermore, the characters depicted in the book are very intriguing. My favorite characters are Josh and Timmy. The sentences involving them made me laugh a few times and helped me retain words through laughter. Paul is pretty cool too. You'll meet them once you buy the book :).
In addition, I took the January 28th SAT test. In the 19 sentence completions of the test, I saw many vocabulary words that were on the Dictionary.
For example: prosaic, ambivalence,tenacious,voracious, facile, and vociferous to name a few. The rest of... read more
Interesting and instructional at the same time
By S. Brown "Mac User" - November 23, 2008Probably the primary reason that something is easy to learn is because it's interesting. Spelling and vocabulary building are usually not among those that arouse interest; however, this book makes these topics interesting for the student by creating amusing word-use sentences that involve teen-think. My daughter really likes using it for her weekly (homeschooled) vocabulary lessons.
Poor example sentences for the vocabulary words
By mary - April 30, 2012There is an example sentence for each of the vocabulary words. It appears that the authors wanted the content of the sentences to be "cool" in order to appeal to teenagers. Unfortunately, many of these sentences have just the opposite effect. In addition, they are often clumsy uses of the actual vocabulary words. Here are some examples from the first few pages of the book (for the words accord, adorned, aesthetic, alacrity, and assiduous):
"The bully told Timmy to give him his lunch money or he'd accord him a supersonic wedgie."
"Derek adorned the walls of his room with posters of hot girls in bikinis, despite his mother's objections."
"Chantalle's mom tried to convince Chantalle that the brown paisley shirt she'd bought was aesthetic, but Chantalle thought the print was totally outdated."
"Shanna's sister agreed with alacrity to cover Shanna after curfew, because Shanna said she'd pay her twenty bucks to do so."
"Timmy was so... read more
