Book Description

0375755926 978-0375755927 March 13, 2001 1st
The Princeton Review realizes that acing the MCAS Grade 8 Science and Technology/ Engineering exam is very different from getting straight As in school. TPR doesn't try to teach students everything there is to know about science and technology--only what they'll need to score higher on the exam. There's a big difference. In Cracking the MCAS Grade 8 Science and Technology/Engineering, The Princeton Review will teach test takers how to think like the test makers and:

*Earn more points by knowing what will be on the test in advance
*Score higher by using techniques like aggressive guessing, Process of Elimination, and the two-pass system
*Get familiar with the exam format so there won't be any surprises on the test day
*Dodge the test traps and pitfalls that cost test takers points

**This book includes 2 full-length simulated MCAS Grade 8 Science and Technology/ Engineering exams. The questions are just like the ones test takers will see on the actual exam, and The Princeton Review fully explains every solution.

Contents Include:

I Orientation
Introduction to the MCAS Exams
Structure and Strategies
II Subject Review
Life Science
Physical Science
Earth Science
Technology/Engineering
Inquiry
III The Princeton Review Practice Tests
