This book was written for foreign students looking to apply to study in the US, both at undergraduate and graduate level, at a low-intermediate ESL level. It fails to achieve its purpose, simply because it is too ambitious a task for 140 pages. The book is full of exercises and copies of official documents, but it is very confusing because it only touches the surface of many different topics. Also, because it tries to breach the language gap for an EFL student, it deals with complicated issues in an offhandish way, when this is exactly the kind of support these students need. Many students who want to study in the US have a higher level of English anyway, and this book doesn't help.
