I have done a few passages in the book (by Hume, Locke, and Machiavelli) and found them to be very challenging. I am an SAT tutor and I had to put 110% focus into reading them. I have not used this workbook with any students, and am on the fence as to whether it is too hard for 16 and 17 year old students. Only the best and brightest could do these passages. I will have do compare them to passages in the Official SAT Book for relative difficulty.I do appreciate the collection of essays. The only reason I deducted a star is I don't think the majority of passages will be as difficult as the ones found in this book. If you can do these passages well, you can do anything the SAT will throw at you.
I think this book is fantastic. I have been an SAT/ACT tutor for 20 years. The New SAT has Reading passages that are absolutely as challenging as those found in this book. In fact, the questions in the actual SAT can sometimes be more challenging than those in this book. I use this book with all of my students who are high-scoring (600+) on the verbal and are looking for 700+. They need a lot of practice with the most challenging passages on the New SAT, and this book provides that in abundance, along with well-designed questions that accurately mimic the actual test questions. I am very grateful that this book exists and recommend it heartily to all students who want to achieve a top score on the Reading section.
