    1.0 out of 5 stars outdated study guide!, April 27, 2005
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the CHSPE: California High School Proficiency Exam (Paperback)
    As others have noted, the CHSPE has been updated and changed! This book does not begin to prepare you for the math on the test. The study book for the California High School Exit Exam is a much better choice now.

    1.0 out of 5 stars The Test Has Changed, July 30, 2004
    By 
    Jane Olson (Carmichael, CA) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the CHSPE: California High School Proficiency Exam (Paperback)
    After buying this book, I found out that the CHSPE has been changed and updated so a lot of the information in the book is useless. The book doesn't even cover some of the subjects on the new test. Wish I knew that before I wasted my money on this study guide.

    1.0 out of 5 stars HORRIBLE, March 19, 2005
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the CHSPE: California High School Proficiency Exam (Paperback)
    don't buy this book it doesn't prepare you for the " new " CHSPE. I studied for weeks and had the stuff in this book memorized but it didn't help. This book is useless because the CHSPE changed. Find a book that helps you prepare for the new one. I wish I had read these reviews before studying and taking the damned test.

    AUGH.
