GED Prep,
By Edie Are "Tutor" (Eastern NC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: GED: Language Arts, Reading (Steck-Vaughn Ged Series) (Paperback)
I use this book as a volunteer for my local Literacy Council. My student is a Burmese woman who learned English after coming to the U.S. two years ago. Our local community college gave her the book as a way to increase her understanding of, and fluency in, English writing and grammar. I like this book's exercises and sample tests, which we use for reading comprehension and vocabulary. For that purpose it is a very good resource, and I highly recommend this book not only as a tool for GED preparation but also for comprehension and English vocabulary.

Excellent GED Book!!!,

This review is from: GED: Language Arts, Reading (Steck-Vaughn Ged Series) (Paperback)
I used this book as well as the corresponding books for the other GED subjects and was able to pass the GED with perfect and near perfect scores. My GED instructor even commented on the fact that I was done with each test within a fraction of the time allotted for each test.
There is way more info in these books than you actually need to know for the test. If you can master what is in these books you will pass the GED on the first try with no problems.

Excellent Text,
This review is from: GED: Language Arts, Reading (Steck-Vaughn Ged Series) (Paperback)
This is the book series you want to use to study. I teach in a GED program. Steck Vaughn wrote the test we currently give until 2014. It pays to use this book if only to get familiar with the format of how the questions are asked and what the tester, Steck Vaughn, is looking for in an answer. We have these five books and this will be for my personal use, mainly at home, where I often spend time on lesson plans. I teach reading, language, and math the most. Contemporary has a good beginning math series, especially Power 1 and 2, but eventually you need to get to math level that is expected when you learn from Steck Vaughn books. We always begin in the reading book; because, if you cannot read and interpret the questions you can not learn what you need to pass the GED exams in any other subject. If a student needs a more simple text for basics then I do recommend the Contemporary group, but then that student must graduate to the Steck Vaughn Series.
