1.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete collection of copied material--Not worth your $$!, June 17, 2008

This review is from: Discontinued (Paperback)

This is by far the worst book I have EVER purchased! It's basically a poorly organized collection of information copied from the internet. I found much of the book WORD FOR WORD on websites and acknowledgment is NOT given to the original authors. Pages 97 through 127 is just COPIED legal information about IDEA. No explanations, just copied information.

It is also woefully incomplete. Instead of GIVING information on necessary test items, it says, for example on page 86, "Know other alternatives to norm-referenced tests." This is rampant throughout the book.

Don't waste your money on this book!

1.0 out of 5 stars A Rip-Off, April 4, 2009

This review is from: Discontinued (Paperback)

Do NOT buy this book under the expectation that it might help you pass the TEXES in any way. No sample tests are offered. The lack of organization makes you wonder what is going on. I had to give this a single star because there is no rating lower than that, but frankly it is trash. I would not buy anything by this publishing house after my negative experience with the book.

1.0 out of 5 stars A TOTAl RIP OFF, February 28, 2008

By 

Donna in exile, Dallas (NOLA) - See all my reviews

This is 59 pages complete with 1.5" margins in 12-14 font of generic "BS" pgs. 1-5 are the index! pages 7-22 are boilerplate test taking advice and tips that you've heard a dozen times and the remaining pages are so superficial as to not even measure a millimeter in depth. Do NOT waste your $40+ dollars on this outrages rip-off.
