I don't think you think rich kids have an advantage on the SATs for the reasons you think. I've met high school kids that didn't know the SATs were multiple choice, or when/where/how to take them. They didn't know that they needed to go to a website to sign up, or that they'd have to figure out transportation to the testing site. Parents of high school kids that were confused between the SATs and the federally-mandated high school tests, and didn't know what they needed to do, if anything, to get their children registered for the test -- much less how to help them prepare. Many schools don't provide any sort of guidance about taking them -- they're too worried about the test prep that actually reflects on their school and don't want to take class time to teach more tests.
The gap between "rich kid" and "poor kid" performance on the SATs is much, much bigger than just "this SAT studying source or that one"
