Using it to review for the test of doom. Praxis 0041 English in the Content Area. It is good as a review document, I don't think it would be particularly helpful if you had never learned any of this in the first place. Lots of in depth stuff and a nice summary at the end of the chapter. But it is grammar so it is BORING.

Good for a refresher or a quick question
