Product Description
Whether you're shopping in the supermarket or playing the stock market, a command of arithmetic is necessary in order to succeed in today's society. But many people have problems with even basic math. Enter Math Smart, an irreverent, easy-to-follow guide that begins with the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and goes on to the scary stuff like exponents, square roots, geometry and algebra. Math Smart will help you break down any complicated equation into its basic parts and won't require you to memorize dozens of long functions and equations.
For students, Math Smart provides a great review for the math achievements and the math sections of the SAT, GMAT, GRE and ACT, as well as being a helpful supplement to confusing math texts. It includes drills throughout, reviews at the end of each chapter, and a glossary of terms.

 Highly Recommended! February 17, 1998
This book can be used as a first-time workbook or as a review. The subjects are geared toward preparing for the standardized math tests found in the SAT, GRE & GMAT exams, but are equally useful for passing job-placement numerical tests. The language & examples are targeted toward young adults (is that a PC term?) without excluding or offending the rest of us. The style is very chatty with lots of interesting visuals. Many practice exercises with both answers and step-by-step explanations of how the answers were arrived at. This book covers the basics of math in a fun way.
Need MATH help for GMAT...GOOD BOOK February 29, 2008
Chrissie Padilla (Orange County, CA)
If you are math impaired and did not do so well on the Math section of GMAT diagnostic this is a great book for you! It does NOT give you gmat practice questions but it does give you a good overview on all Math topics covered on GMAT. It provides a few practice questions per topic simply to reiterate a subject. I started w/ this before jumping into the Official Guide and I found it very helpful!If you are below average or simply average on the diagnostic test this is for you. If you are a "math smarty" this will be a bore!
 It's good April 5, 2003

This book is really fairly good at introducing easy to remember math solutions. The author takes nothing for granted and teaches from the beginning so that you may "learn" the material. The only down fall is that there are a couple of type-os in the algebra section answers which really drove me crazy second guessing myself. Fortunately for me, I work with engineers who confirmed my answers. Having said that, the book redeems itself with usefulness. I give 3 1/2 stars.
