Summary: Excellent review, but too much
Comment: I used the Princeton Review Physics before taking the SAT II in December. The book covered literally everything I had learned in physics, down to the smallest detail. However, it also contained added sections that were not on the test, nor are they ever on the test, according to my physics teacher. The sections on vector multiplication are not needed until you take the AP Physics exam, nor are a number of other sections. However, it is better to have too much than not enough. The one thing that annoyed me most, however, was the practice tests. These were infinitely more difficult than the real thing. There was no score conversion, but I figured my score to be somewhere in the high 600s, and on the actual test, I got an 800. So, if you don't do well on the tests in this book, don't be discouraged, and if you do well, you should easily be able to get 750+.

Summary: Cutting corners
Comment: Really, if you want to buy this book I'd suggest you buy the AP Physics Review published by Princeton Review instead. Why? Because its the SAME thing! The only difference is that they took out the Physics C-level stuff and scarped out all the free response questions. All the multiple choice are the same, and so are the review material (from the diagrams to the explaination).

Rating: 4
Summary: Publisher Says No Errors Reported
Comment: I'm giving this review a decent score sight unseen because the publisher monitors errors, and none has been reported (per Random House Customer Service, 800-733-3000).

All the SAT prep books are surely produced under tight time and budget constraints, and so the availability of errata is an important attribute. I ask others to consider this in their reviews. Random House's system is cumbersome; many publishers could learn from O'Reilly's handling of this issue.
