This book is largely insufficient December 30, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book does not seem to even meet the requirements of ninth grade standards. It is horrendous for them to even say that it will help any ninth grade students to meet requirements. The math that is covered is only Algebra I level. For the students in 9th grade that are taking Geometry or Algebra II, this is insufficient material. Also, this book offers mediocre review questions on writing and reading. It covers only material learned in elementary school and middle school. The reading comprehension is much too easy and is at a 6th grader level.

I would never recommend this book to anyone. It is an entire waste of money and efforts. Please do not purchase this book because it is not beneficial to anyone except for the publisher.

BELOW STANDARDS!!!! May 5, 2007
Kate Conrad (California)
I, as a student, was utterly dissatisfied with the content from this product. Since STAR testing was around the corner, I wanted to prepare myself and benefit from test-taking strategies. When I flipped through the pages, I realized how much the material was irrelevant compared to the district tests that I take every now and then, throughout the school year. Apparently, it did not at all cover 9th grade material and did not set the bar high enough. However, I am sure it can match elementary to middle school standards. It is unbelievable and absurd how the publisher can actually dare to distribute this straightforward material. When I took the STAR test, I noticed 95% of the practice questions (given in the workbook) were not at all alike compared to the real deal. As a student who reviewed the workbook and took the real test, I urge you not to purchase this ridiculous book or any books from this publisher.
