Summary: WRONG INFORMATION
Comment: Where do I start about how awful this book is!?!?!?!
Forget the absence of "real tests".

This book even has WRONG FACTS in it.

I thank my lucky stars I did not buy this book, I merely glanced through it. I am planning on getting certified in Biology and Chemistry - so obviously that is the section (that is all of maybe 5 pages) I flipped to.

Page 64. There is a list of 10 or so definitions that biology teachers should know. HOWEVER, the *BRILLIANT* people that wrote this book give you false and misleading definitions.

For one - examples of amino acids would include alanine, glutamine, threonine. NOT adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine - WHICH ARE NUCLEOTIDES.

DNA - is NOT made up of amino acids, but NUCLEOTIDES, and all cells do not have nuclei - think about PROKARYOTES.

Cytoplasm was defined as "goop in the cell", and mitochondria are sausage-like structures that make energy.

WHAT!?!? That's all an instructor teaching our children should know!?!?!?! It really makes me sick. If the Princeton Review can makes such gross errors in its publications, I hate to see how bad this book was before going to the printers.

Summary: Waste of time and money
Comment: Some tips are hepful but the practice exams are a real let down because there's no explanation of the answers. Most helpful to me in the math section. Too expensive for what little you get out of it. It really doesn't address middle grade professional knowledge. Better skipped to find a more useful study/resource guide.

Summary: PLT (K-5) and Elementary Education (1-8) - Praxis II
Comment: This book appears to be good if you have to take the core battery tests. However, it does not provide any information concerning the tests on elementary education 1-8 or the principles of learning and teaching (PLT) tests which are other sections of the Praxis II. It is also the requirement for the State of Ohio.
