Summary: Solid information, but too many generalizations.
Comment: This book provides the necessary historical data when taking the SAT II World History exam. Much of the factoids in bold in the text, were included on the test. I found this book most useful by studying the terms in bold, rather than reading everything. The authors often make sweeping generalizations that are completely unnecessaryand that are entirely under debate. Also, the practice tests provided are mediocre. The questions are poorly phrased, and do not resemble what is on the actual exam in content or grammatical nature (the 2003 exam emphasized ancient African and Asian history much more than I expected). This book is too opinionated to be a test prep guide, but it does the job.
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent Book
Comment: I studied the 2 weeks before the test using this book and I scored a 740. The questions at the end of the units and the two practice tests are tough-a lot tougher than the actual thing which is why if you read the book and do all the questions you are guaranteed a good score, but you have to be dedicated.

Summary: Great Information, Though a Bit too much
Comment: This book a great information, though the information given is a bit too much to prepare for a test in under 3 months. Luckily I am naturally smart in history and geography, but what really helped me on the test were the practice quizzes and tests. The World History test really includes more than you will learn in the classroom. It covers art, music, archaeology, general history, anthropology, and economic history. The questions that this book gave basically reappeared on the test. I was a little disappointed in my grade(720) and I should have studied harder. I guarantee at least a 650 on the test if you read this book. Overall the book is great.
