Book Description

February 1, 2009 0764140868 978-0764140860 2
The COOP and HSPT tests are entrance exams given to students applying at most Catholic high schools across the country. In the Archdiocese of New York, student applicants take a slightly different test called the TACHS. This updated manual offers general subject reviews with questions and answers cover math, verbal skills, language arts, and reading comprehension at a level applicable to all three exams. The book concludes with two practice COOPs, two practice HSPTs, and two practice TACHS tests that reflect the most recent exams. Practice tests come with answers and explanations.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Test Prep material -- new edition is so odd, November 4, 2009
    By 
    B. Solomon "Stealth Tutor" (Sierra Madre, CA United States) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: Barron's COOP/HSPT/TACHS (Paperback)
    I work as an academic tutor, and one of the subjects I teach a lot is HSPT/ISEE test prep. We use this series for both tests. Great book, really top-notch. It has a chapter reviewing math, starting with integers and going through Algebra and Geometry. The child may have learned all the math fundamentals in school, but some of them are not current. This is a great review of fractions, decimals, percentages, Pythagorean Theorem, math vocabulary, forgotten equations.

    The Reading Comp and Vocabulary chapters are equally solid. The material in all sections is presented in a straight-forward manner; answers and explanations are also included. There are two practice tests in back, along with practice material for the two other tests covered by the book (if you REALLY want to practice taking tests).

    I have used other TP material, but I keep coming back to Barron's. It is the best.

    OK -- 8/2010 -- There is a new edition just out. I used it today with a student, just the Verbal section so far. It was so very odd -- has been changed radically, so as to be obfuscating and not clear, with examples that were irrelevant to the task. I will look further, but check new edition carefully before you buy.
