While it seems at the start of the book that it is very anti-Princeton Review/Kaplan, it has good reason. Throughout the early chapters, the book constantly emphasizes the "cracking" the SAT I is not the way to do well on the test. It uses the analogy (an analogy that I thought was pretty good) that just like in baseball, a baseball player would not memorize every single scenario in which he/she could experience in a game.
