 A Must for Those Looking for A Quick Math Refresher Course December 1, 2004
Erika Sorocco (Southern California, USA)
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
For a college entrance requirement, I had to take a math assessment that I was a bit nervous about, seeing as how I haven't really done any math in a few months. However, when I found CLIFFS QUICKREVIEW: BASIC MATH AND PRE-ALGEBRA, my nervousness quickly faded. This book features every bit of "need to know" basic math and pre-algebra in a nutshell, instead of going on and on for pages, doing nothing more than confusing you. The format is great, and offers practice questions and answers, as well as easy ways to remember how to solve each problem. If you are looking for a quick refresher course in basic math and pre-algebra, this is the one book that you need.

6th Grade Math Teacher Loves This Resource February 14, 2000

I teach both average and honors math to typical 6th grade students. I use the Cliffs Quick Review for Basic Math and Pre-Algebra in my classroom and encourage my students to purchase a copy for themselves. I find it to be a usable source for self study and review. The language and examples are useful and simple for students and parents to understand. I also have several other Cliffs Quick Review titles for my own children. My children use the Quick Reviews for Algebra I & II, Geometry, Chemistry, and Biology. I am so pleased with the format of these books that I will purchase any of the other titles relevant to high school and college study.
really good April 4, 2000

this book: 1. will help you solve 80% of the math the average person will encounter in their life, 2. [and if a parent] will allow you the math knowledge to allow you to help you to help your kids with their homework until they reach that age where they are sure that your to dumb and way to old to help them, anyway, 3. [if a student] only half listen to the 'really dull' math teacher and then learn it on your own - but it will really help if you listen and study on your own.
Great for helping kids with homework. April 26, 2006

great book for a condensed introductory couse May 15, 2008

If you want to teach a second grader some basic math in half a year, this is a right book. We don't need three to five years to teach basic math. So skip the lengthy (and maybe even distracting) textbooks. Use this concise book as a guideline. This is achievable for bright kids. Maybe this is an unconventioal use of the book.
