I help students prepare for the SAT. I bought this edition because the previous edition came out in 2001 and I wanted to see a newer literature test. Sadly, it's the same test. The cover states that there are new detailed answer explanations for the questions, which I do think are helpful for students. Still, couldn't ETS have sprung for new sample tests?

I'm a full-time test-prep tutor, so part of what I do is help students work on SAT subject tests. I agree with the reviewer who complained that this book hasn't been updated enough. The student who really wants a competitive SAT 2 test score will ultimately be disappointed in this book, since there is only one of each test. If the College Board had deigned to include new versions of all the tests with the new version of this book, at least students could supplement this book with the old version and have 2 tests for each subject.
Serious students will have to supplement this book with practice tests written by a third party, which is unfortunate since those tests will not be highly accurate representations of the real thing.
I wouldn't recommend buying this new - find a cheaper, older version or a used one (just be careful that it isn't marked up).
