Book Description

1576332144 978-1576332146 February 15, 2007 CD-Rom
EXAMBUSTERS Study Cards printed/boxed or on CD-Rom are specifically designed for exam preparation: AP, PSAT, New SAT, SAT II, ACT, PRAXIS, PPSAT, New GRE, GED, New GMAT, New MCAT, CLEP, ASVAB, New York State Regents, HSPT, COOP, SSAT, ISEE, and classroom quizzes, tests, and finals. Each EXAMBUSTERS Study Card title provides a concise, focused review of course material. Only essential facts and formulas are presented. We cover many introductory high school and college courses, and our titles are approved by the New York City Board of Education.

Why are Study Cards the best way to learn?
Because we learn most effectively when we can:
---absorb information in small, progressive increments.
---take an active part in the process
---receive immediate feedback (the answer is shown as soon as we fill in the blank)

Who wrote the cards?
High school teachers, test prep coaches, language experts, professional interpreters and translators, and college professors, with a focus on preparing students for standardized tests such as the AP, New SAT, SAT II, PRAXIS, GRE, GED, GMAT, MCAT, ACT, CLEP, and many others. Each Course in a Box or Course on CD-Rom covers the basics of a full year introductory course. EXAMBUSTERS Study Cards focus only on essential facts, definitions, and formulas. The flash cards were designed to help students learn and review courses efficiently.

What is the advantage of flash card study over textbooks and review books?
---Parents, tutors, and teachers can work together with students. Perfect for home schooling!
---Groups of students can have fun turning a study session into a trivia game.
---Portable: Learn a few each day. A sense of accomplishment grows as your stack of I have no idea! decreases, and the stack of I know the answer! increases.

Who has benefitted from our study cards?
* high school and college students
* head start oriented grade school students
* parents and grandparents concerned about their children's education
* teachers (for classroom, small group activities)
* tutors (for one-on-one teaching)

What is special about EXAMBUSTERS Study Cards on CD-Rom?
Cutting edge. . . the only series of its kind. User-friendly software--simple for all ages to explore. Study cards are displayed on the screen, one at a time, and can be eliminated from the stack just like printed cards. Our Screensaver Mode displays a new question and answer every few seconds in random order. Learn subliminally! Finally, our test mode randomly selects questions to create a quiz, mid-term, or final--your choice--a new test every time. The EXAMBUSTERS software program keeps track of the test time limit and grades you at test completion. Grades are stored in a table on the help menu so you can track your progress.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT PRODUCT!, August 7, 2008
By 
This review is from: Ace's COOP/HSPT Exambusters Study Cards (Ace's Exambusters Study Cards) (CD-ROM)
Every year I recommend them to my students. The ones who buy them seem to do a little better than they might have. The cards are numbered, so it's easy to tell them which ones they need to know, and which they can set aside based on the curriculum. It's harder to accomplish that type of culling of information with a review book you'd buy at the superstore.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY BECAUSE THE ANSWERS ARE WRONG!, January 4, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ace's COOP/HSPT Exambusters Study Cards (Ace's Exambusters Study Cards) (CD-ROM)
I purchased the "Revised" COOP/HSPT Study Cards on CD-Rom to help my son study for his upcoming HSPT test.

There are three portions on the CD. 1) Arithmetic 2) Algebra 3) Geometry

We didn't study the Arithmetic portion and started with Algebra. When I saw that the answer to question #11) 5 x 0 = 5 was "true" I knew there was a problem. The subsequent 15 answers were also incorrect (the answers were for other questions). I emailed the company through their website a week ago but haven't received a response.

We decided to switch to the Geometry section, but that portion was completely blank. Nothing there.

Needless to say, I cannot let my son work with these study cards because he could be learning wrong information. I am really disappointed because some of the features of the product are pretty cool but those features are pointless if the information is wrong and therefore, unreliable.

5.0 out of 5 stars CLASSROOM AID -- Liked the software., June 17, 2009
This review is from: Ace's COOP/HSPT Exambusters Study Cards (Ace's Exambusters Study Cards) (CD-ROM)
My students love them. We use them in class for group study and a jeopardy/trivia game. They're good review before finals and good preview for upcoming lessons. Exambusters cover the basics in an unconfusing format. In our learning center, we use the software. It's easy to figure out. Just click around and all the functions are clear. Students can remove cards they know or don't need from a virtual stack of cards, the same as if they had index cards printed. The screensaver helped with vocabulary study especially. The computer test was different each time and no matter how many times it was taken. There are three lengths to choose from, quiz, mid-term, and final.
