The CSET, which is replacing the MSAT in California, consists of three multiple-choice subtests. Subtest I tests in reading, language, literature, history, and social science. Subtest II is in science and math; and subtest III covers visual and performing arts, physical education, and human development. This manual offers in-depth reviews in all test areas, as well as detailed advice in study and test-taking strategies. It also provides two complete practice CSETs with explained answers.

Barron's needs an editor...,
This review is from: How to Prepare for the CSET: California Subject Matter Examinations for Teachers/Multiple Subjects (Barron's Cset) (Paperback)
I am appalled by the errors in this book - and I have only studied the Math and Science sections so far. Some of the answers are glaringly wrong. Some of the statements are completely inconsistent with each other or with the quiz answers. That said, on the bright side, researching the science inconsistencies has taught me a lot. The breadth of the subject matter is actually helpful and there were some beneficial explanations in this book that I did not find in others - but don't always trust the answers given and do research the inconsistencies.

Yes, there are errors,

This review is from: How to Prepare for the CSET: California Subject Matter Examinations for Teachers/Multiple Subjects (Barron's Cset) (Paperback)
I only came to amazon to review this book after I had been studying with it for two subtests. I finally had to admit that it has enough errors to be a serious hindrance on an exam. There ARE typos galore, omissions of instructions as well as short answer responses, and duplication of sample questions! If the goal is to pass the CSET, one question might make a difference. I'm going to buy another study guide tomorrow in hopes that it won't be full of these inaccuracies.
That said, the first two parts, "Your Review Plan" and "CSET Overview and Test-Taking Strategies" were worth the money that I paid for the book. A friend had a book from another company that didn't contain some of these sections and I think it is helpful to have them.

Absolutely USELESS!,

This review is from: How to Prepare for the CSET: California Subject Matter Examinations for Teachers/Multiple Subjects (Barron's Cset) (Paperback)
This book is a joke. There are so many inaccuracies that you can't trust any information in it. It was clearly NOT proofread for content or grammar before being released. So disappointed in it. Someone mentioned the Father Serra inaccuracies but there are so many more. I couldn't possibly trust the data in this as a study guide.
