Not worth it. [Posted on 2008-01-30] I have been preparing for my GED for quite awhile now and have utilized numerous books. This book was by far the most useless of all. The practice questions we often pointless and the study advice was more common sense than anything else. At the end of the book, they include final practice tests that seem to be more comical than useful. I had a hard time taking the practice tests without criticizing the book consistently. I suggest the Kaplan GED self study guide 2007-2008 edition. At least the Kaplan book seems to take the 5 subjects serious and is successful in treating the reader as if they have a i.q. higher than a newt. Sadly, the GED for Dummies book fails to accomplish this.
EXCELLENT BOOK [Posted on 2008-02-10] One of the best sources to help students attain GED that I have found. I volunteer at an adult reading center and this book puts it all together in easy to understand ways to help attain that next step in education.
Great Quick Review and Practice Tests [Posted on 2008-03-22] We love the "Dummies" series for their humor and easy-to-read-and-understand qualties. This one is no exception. It should be noted, however, that this book is NOT a complete study course, but rather a brush-up review with two full practice tests. The practice tests then have detailed explanations for each question as to why it is the right answer. If you think you basically know the material and just need help preparing for the test itself, this is the book for you, especially if you don't have months to prepare. If you are looking for a full study course, I recommend McGraw-Hill's GED : The Most Complete and Reliable Study Program for the GED Tests. It is a huge, complete book, but the pre-test helps you zone in on the areas you need to study the most.
Funny [Posted on 2008-05-15] The shipping was very slow and when I finally got the book, it had a price tag still on it that read $6!!
Use this and PASS the GED! [Posted on 2008-09-13] This boo is chock full of useful information and what to study to prepare for the GED. My daughter used it and passed ALL SECTIONS of the GED on the FIRST TRY! I recommend it!
