its usefulness as a study aid regardless of whether students will be tested by multiple-choice questions or in another format an extremely user-friendly and interactive approach
a more challenging final question in each chapter (the 'Closer ') that illustrates a sophisticated problem fifteen 'Closing Closer' questions in the last chapter that provide practice and helpful review of concepts in earlier chapters

This book is an excellent companion to the primary reading assigned for Property, simplifying complex subjects down to "plain language."

This review is from: Glannon Guide to Property: Learning Through Multiple Choice (Glannon Guides) (Paperback)

This book is very helpful in the last couple of days leading up to an exam, but it doesn't do much to explain anything you may have not understood. It's best suited to helping you find your weak spots, and then you can look elsewhere (like in the Examples and Explanations series) for a better understanding. I pretty much always get the Glannon Guides to (insert subject here) as a good way to test myself prior to an exam, but it's not going to be a companion to your textbook the way that some others may be. As long as you know what you're using it for, this is a very good book.
