Product Description
The Princeton Review realizes that acing the TAAS Exit-Level Math exam is very different from getting straight As in school. TPR doesn't try to teach students everything there is to know about math -- only what they'll need to know to score higher on this exam. There's a big difference. In Cracking the TAAS: Exit-Level Math, The Princeton Review will teach test takers how to think like the test makers.
This is accomplished by teaching students how to:
Eliminate answer choices using Process of Elimination and other techniques
Use techniques such as Ballparking to save time and raise scores
Improve scores by focusing on the material most likely to appear on the test
Test one's knowledge with review questions for each math concept covered
Nail even the toughest questions: fractions, word problems, algebra, geometry, and more
Dodge the traps and pitfalls that cost test takers points
*This book includes 2 full-length simulated Exit-Level Math exams. All of TPR's sample test questions are just like the ones test takers see on the actual exams, and every solution is fully explained.
Contents Include:
Part I: Introduction
About the TAAS Exams
Structure and Strategies
Part II: Math Review
The Basics
Exponents, Ratios, Probabilities, and More
Geometry
Analyzing Data
Part III: The Princeton Review Practice Tests

Good but juvenile July 24, 2001
This is a good book, I think, and it helps me with math. But the author has a tone that would be better for someone half my age. I know that a lot of people take a Princeton Review course, but does this author know anything about high school?
