   As others have stated, the best source is from the makers of the test. So you should probably start with “The Official SAT Study Guide”.
   The only problem that a lot of students have is that they run out of practice material b/c the book only has 8 tests. (I know it sounds like a lot, but it’s not if you’re really studying hard.)
   If the same thing happens to you, then your best overall bet is probably SparkNotes “10 Practice Tests for the SAT”. This book does a good job of simulating the Math and Writing sections. The Reading sections are pretty bad, but they might be the best of the remaining choices.
   I probably wouldn’t waste time (or money) on any Kaplan or Barron’s books because they really do not give you good practice for the real SAT. Their practice sections are generally too long or too short, too easy or too hard.

   As he said Official SAT Study Guide is great which focuses on the whole thing if you are having problem on one section like Critical Reading and you want to focus mainly on that then id get kaplan books that just focus on one section like thishttp://www.amazon.com/Kaplan-Critical-Re…

   The best book is the Official SAT Study Guide, published by The College Board.
   When you practice, it is best to use these test, as they are essentially real SATs – written by the company that gives the test.

   The Official SAT Study Guide is good, but if you are looking for some more challenging material try Princeton Review SAT guide.
