Publisher's Synopsis
"8 Hours to Mastering ACT/SAT English" is designed to help students prepare for the English language and writing sections of the ACT test and the SAT test. The primary strategy given in this book is to help students identify the "tricks" used by ACT/SAT writers. While the majority of test prep books use language and explanations that are convoluted and confusing to students, this book strives to simplify material for easy understanding and rapid acquistion of grammatical concepts. If students dedicate just eight hours to mastering the concepts in this book, it should help them immensly on ACT and SAT English sections. This book was created for the average student, not grammatical gurus! Therefore, the explanations in this guide are concise and generally void of technical grammatical terms. Don't waste money on expensive test prep books that are too long and borish!
