Here are the four books that I highly recommend (linked to Amazon); each of them cover the topic in an easy to read "no-bull" manner. Since most of what is on the SAT is just a refresher for the average student, these books are the perfect refresher. Brand new they sell for about $10 each. But you can find them at used books stores, like my favorite: Half Priced Books or online, links below.
Cliffs QuickReview Math Word Problem
Cliffs QuickReview Basic Math and Pre-Algebra
Cliffs QuickReview Algebra I
Cliffs QuickReview Geometry
Some of my students cannot find these locally, I saw Basic Math & Algebra in Staples this morning for $9.99 each and will hit Barnes & Noble & half-price tonight to see if I can find it.
You may also want to try www.abebooks.com; I highly recommend it to my students.
Here is a link to Cliffs Word Problems , where it is selling for $1 -- yup that is ONE DOLLAR, good site for anyone to know about. (I just purchased the textbook for my next college course for my teaching certificate. The bookstore wanted $107, I bought it brand new online for $54 - you do the math).
