Its about $50 and comes with a CD.
Not promoting this, since AT-SAT is all about aptitude.

Hi there,
Im taking my ATSAT on Monday 3/17 and have read both Mattson's and Nolan's books to help prep. I personally found Mattson's book and CD confusing, especially in the applied math section because he states that "knowledge of knots or nautical mile terminology is not required to determine the answer (pg 81)" yet the CD that comes with the prep book requires you to quickly convert KPH to miles or to knots to get the right answer. Also, there is a typo on page 71, when you get instructions for a scan test that tells you to type in a number (75) which is actually inside the range given (470-630). I also found a typo in Peterson's book, page 135, example 2. 35 minutes X 60 = .584 hour is not correct. The symbol instead of X is supposed to be (divide). Anyway, just found stuff like this to be frustrating 
I wish I could say something better but I honestly don't think the book was much help.
