Explains clearly but doesn't include all subjects fully June 13, 2006 Chev 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
The book is easy to read and gives background information and a general review but does not cover all topics, although it did mention some subjects not included in the Kaplan book. I think if used with proper review material to expand on the subjects mentioned it is useful.
Vocab List is Worth a Look and P. Test is Helpful December 1, 2005 Irene Music 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
Barring the Hugh Grant look-alike on the front, I first thought this book was nearly worthless. Then I looked at the vocab list and took the practice test -- they were both very helpful. It's too bad the rest of the book is sinfully shoddy, made on cheap newspaper, all black and white type -- if you didn't learn it in Freshman Biology with the color photos and CD-ROMS and 3D glasses and cattle-prod or whatever they use now, then cheap newspaper and crummy drawings won't help now. br / br /If you're trying to save money, you could just go to a book-store and copy the vocab list at the back. See if you like the p. test, you might buy the whole book (esp at the price Amazon has now -- I paid almost 30$ for it from a regular bookstore). But do get that vocab list -- it's about 30 words that were all over the test, words nobody in their right mind would know unless they knew it would be on a test. br / br /The practice test was helpful because UNLIKE ETS, the Princeton Review p. test gives explanations for all the answers and I did learn a couple of terms/ideas that were on the test from which I benefitted by going through answer explanations and correcting my test.
