Hi, To prepare for SAT first right material is required.
These are the books you need:

SAT Prep Black Book:
The Most Effective SAT Strategies Ever Published
Boot Camp for your Brain
Barrons SAT
Kaplan 12 Practice Tests for the SAT
The Official SAT Study Guide Second Edition
Kaplan SAT 2011: Strategies, Practice and Review

Safe keys to remember:
  • Learn to be extremely picky about which answers to eliminate. This especially applies to the Reading and Writing sections. If a question seems subjective, keep reminding yourself that its an illusion. All incorrect choices are incorrect for good reasons, and its your job to find those reasons until you narrow your answers down to one possibility.
  • Look for words that indicate positive or negative connotation in the part of the passage that the question references. This can help you to eliminate at least a couple of choices even if you have no idea which of the remaining choices is correct.
  • At the beginning of every passage on the SAT, there is a little italicized blurb giving you a bit of context about the passage and its author. This introductory blurb contains valuable information, and if you skip it, you could miss out on easy points.
  • SAT questions are not arranged in order of difficulty (so that easier problems come earlier in the test than the hard ones). Instead, its important to identify the questions that YOU find easy or hard.
These are some points to consider while preparing for SAT.

Good Luck.
