Summary: Excellent Preparation Assistance & Explanations
Comment: This study guide was worth every penny. I just did the computer-based Praxis I, and aced it, thanks to this book. I had forgotten nearly all my high school math (having graduated almost 20 years ago), but this book helped me get back up to speed-- I actually got a higher score on math than on English, amazingly enough!
The practice tests were wonderful preparation, and overall the practice tests were a bit harder than the real tests, which I liked. So when I finally took the Parxis I, I could relax and really breeze through the test. I finished in about 3 1/2 hours, and did not feel the need to second-guess myself or change any answers.
Buy it. You'll be glad you did!

Summary: Is Ohio harder or what?
Comment: I was thrilled when I read other reviews praising this book. It gave me more confidence when they stated that the practice tests were very much like the actual test. Ohio must have a different test though because the actual test was twice as hard as the practice tests. I barely passed. I needed a 171 and I received a 175. The book itself is great for review, especially when it comes to the metric system and percents but don't count on the real test being similar to the practice tests, at least in regards to the computerized version. I did hear that they throw out a few extra questions occasionally, that don't count, to find out new test questions in the future, so maybe some of those were on my test to make it harder. I didn't use any other practice books so I'm not sure this is a bad book, but it didn't prepare me as much as I would of liked it to have.

Summary: Don't panic about doing bad on the practice tests
Comment: Don't let your scores on the practice tests get you down like the lady from Evansville. The book is an excellent preparatory guide. You may not do too well on the reading practice tests but so what-don't let it worry you worry you. It's the most subjective portion of the test. Just use the strategies posed in the book and do practice questions and you'll do fine. I received a 182 and I never did better than 70% on the reading tests. This book more than prepares you to beat the test.
The math review is excellent. I'm a liberal arts major who is terrible at math and I walked out of the test with a 185. I am still shocked at the score.
The written review section takes you through all the grammar and punctuation rules you have forgotten. The practice tests here are excellent. The guide on how to practice writing the essay was tremendous too.
The reading section is a bit weak but you have the skills or you don't; the strategies on how to approach the test and the techniques to use during the test were invaluable.
I still can't believe I'm writing a review but this book was worth it! Good Luck.
