Kudos to the author for the best book to prepare for the SAT II French test. Five stars for the only prep book with 10 practice tests, clear answers with detailed explanations, lots of grammar review, and a listening comprehension disc. Merci beaucoup!

5.0 out of 5 stars PICK THIS ONE !, July 1, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Prepare for SAT II--French (Barron's How to Prepare for the Sat II French) (Paperback)
I have had French class for 6 years now and I still have found this book very helpful because it covers all the important grammar and has a good vocabulary section that can be easily learned in a few weeks . I also recommend this book since it has 10 practice tests that are actually as hard as the the real test ( often practice tests are harder ). The CD is somewhat helpful as well, particularly for those who plan to do the listening test.

3.0 out of 5 stars Really good but beware of major flaw.., December 27, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Prepare for SAT II--French (Barron's How to Prepare for the Sat II French) (Paperback)
I think this book is excellent and I would have given it five stars except for the major flaw in the book. It is difficult to go into detail but a portion of what is supposed to be on the CD is not on the CD at all. I was very disappointed at this. I sent an e-mail to Barrons letting them know about this flaw, etc. but they were not even concerned enough to reply - which says a lot. I let the bookstore (from where I purchased the book) know about this flaw and they said they had had a lot of other complaints about the very same issue - so BEWARE. I was also told Barrons had not returned their e-mails or calls on the same matter. Really bad. Other than that, and Barron's lack of concern, this book is very good for grammar and vocabulary. My only other comment would be that some of the reading exercises in the 9 tests are extremely difficult and probably more representative of something an extremely advanced student would be capable of. However, BEWARE OF FLAW BEFORE YOU SPEND THE MONEY.
