This review is from: 501 Challenging Logic & Reasoning Problems: Fast, Focused Practice for Standardized Tests r Word Skills (Learningexpress Skill Builders Practice) (Paperback)

In a nutshell, this book is a watered down version of GRE/GMAT/LSAT/SAT tests. The book is not a useful tool for helping one to prepare or get more experience on taking such tests; go elsewhere for that. The book is a good resource for junior-high/high-school students who want to start or improve their thinking skills. The few drawbacks are: (a) the book really should have 4x the number of problems (b) The more challenging sections should give a step by step example on how to solve the particular type of problem.

Bought for my son who is trying for FBI or Border Patrol. He did not really look at the book at this time. May need it at a later date in the selection process. Fast shipping well packed with minimal packing material. Thank you. (BTW--If applying for Border Patrol, you will probably need this book before testing as they put in real languages and fake languages for you to decipher.) Good Luck! Go USA!!
