I had requested this book for my daughter who is a sophomore and will begin testing in the fall. Since math has never been her strongest subject, we both realized some additional help in this field would be necessary.
The book is easy to follow with diagnostic tests provided for each section. The user can adapt his/her review to those areas requiring the most work.
Explanations of concepts accompany each section and answers are supplied for immediate feedback on performance by the student.
The area on quantitative comparison was unfamiliar to my daughter, so that section in particular was highlighted as one for additional work.
My daughter likes the way the book is formatted so that it allows her to focus her time and attention on her weakest areas.
This book is great for an overview of math skills. I recommend it for SAT/ACT preparation.
I am using this book now to refresh my math skills for an upcoming placement test and it is a tremendous help. So far it is easy to understand and well organized. Now I am able to add and subract fractions again! Yippeee!
This book is bursting with quick ly explained and easy to follow directions for not only learning different areas of math- but written in such a way that you can understand them. A must have and great assest for those beginning,continuing or needing brush ups on numerous types of math problems.
A must for any standardized test taker. I recommend studying it before starting any specific exam book unless you're a fresh graduate and remember your math well.
