Well, I was kind of confused when I first realized that last year the Sat changed adding to it a writing section, if Im not wrong...

So I was researching to purchase preparation books and didn't know which would you guys recommend, since the new SAT has been ever tried.
I was looking for lots of practice because I have around 3 months to prepare it at a full time.
Therefore, I ruled out "The official guide for the new SAt" since it doesn't give you any explanations...

I am very needed of your suggestions because I do not know which book might give me the best source of knowledge for the new SAT. There are many books for the "old " SAT , but I don't know if I should buy those...
I think that what I would need are:

-many practice tests>>+explanations
- vocabulary>> understanding(((think english parts might be hard since Im a foreigner)))>>>consider it as an important factor
- scores/samples / ways to learn for the essays of the SAT

According to this, please also tell me a good combination of some preparation books in order to improve what I BELIEVE/ guess is important.

BTW, I do not know anything about SAT ,never taken the PSat or other things, which can determine some startups...So please I need your help to prepare for the SAT in a focused way.

Is it worthy these CD's that prepare you in a computer?? Please HElp that's all I need!

Guide me in the way you want, I will appreciate it a lot!
THANKS A LOT IN ADVANCE
