4.0 out of 5 stars Great for extra help..., September 1, 2002

Hope King (Memphis, TN) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Math Advantage 2003 (CD-ROM)

With taking Geometry this year, I got stuck with a not so great teacher, and decided I needed extra help. We saw this product, and decided to purchase it. So far, it has great animated examples, quizzes, and tests. It also includes a "game" for when you pass a test with a good grade. This program contains eight discs starting at pre-algebra going up to calculus and also statistics, and "real life math." A great deal for brushing up or using for high school, like I am!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, November 10, 2002

I was so surprised when I started using this software. There is so much you can learn. It takes you step by step through each subject, until you have mastered it. I never thought I would ever understand pre-calculas until now.

1.0 out of 5 stars wouldn't work; encore didn't honor money-back guarantee, December 22, 2003

--> Stay away from all products from this company! <--

- wouldn't install on xp/pro (product box and Amazon state this works on XP, but website indicates product doesn't support this configuration)
- installs on mac os9, but works poorly (unreadable dark blue text on black background, sound is either too loud or too soft, fields not editable that should be, etc.)
- even worse, company (Encore) wouldn't honor 30-day money-back guarantee -- after attempting to return product in original box, etc. to Encore, I received a letter back stating I need to return product to place of original purchase (contrary to product documentation), and they didn't return product back to me to even be able to do this! [attempts to contact via phone didn't work -- on hold for 30+ min's]
