 WAY to many mistakes! August 17, 2007
Nehemiah Scudder (NYC)
As noted by other reviewer AND there was at least one more that she didn't mention!
 Way too many errors in practice tests March 12, 2007
Mary Lu (Midland MI USA)
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This test preparation book gives lots of practical information on taking the test. However, there are seven errors in the three short practice tests: two correct choices for two of the questions, three confusing typos, misinterpretation of a story question into the algebraic expression, and an unstated assumption must be made in another question. Detailed errata notes were sent to the publisher on Feb. 15. Students should be warned about these questions (Q's 9,14,16 in test 1A; Q 14,17 in 1B; Q 6,10 in 1C).
