5.0 out of 5 stars
This book made the test easy,
By Jane Smith (Hadlyme, CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kaplan MAT, 2007-2008 Edition (Paperback)
I took my test yesterday, and I feel very confident that I did well. I followed the guidelines of this book and took all of the practice tests. This is the best study guide I've ever used, and I know it made all the difference for me. This is the only book I used to study, and by the last practice test I was in the 90th percentile. I highly recommend it!

Excellent Preparation for the MAT,
This review is from: Kaplan MAT, 2007-2008 Edition (Paperback)
Some say that the MAT is a test that you cannot "study" for. And this may be true, but only to a point. Because the MAT is so broad, you cannot possibly work to know what is on the test. The best that you can really do is prepare yourself to take the MAT with a guide like this one.
I just took the MAT earlier today and feel that I did very well. My initial reaction after the test was that the practice tests included in this book were actually more difficult than the MAT itself. I credit this book in helping me to be well prepared for the test. I know for sure that reading/using this book has helped me to achieve a higher score than what I would have gotten on my own. Another reviewer noted some errors in the text, and here is one more: the Saffir-Simpson scale attributed in the text to earthquakes is actually used for Hurricanes. Aside from some small inconsistencies like the one above, I do feel that this book helped tremendously in familiarizing me with what to expect on the MAT. The book itself consists of study lists and content areas to concentrate on - and these will give you a decent amount of information that may appear on the test. But, the real leap forward (for me anyway) was in the practice tests themselves. In taking the tests you obviously get excellent practice in working with the analogies. On top of that, my own gains were found In reviewing each answer to the practice tests (even the correct ones). First, you get an idea of how well you are doing. And second, by reading each answer you get even more material related to each subject area than is included in just the study lists. I'd highly recommend this book for MAT preparation. The cost is more than reasonable and the benefits for me have been certainly tangible.

This was a great book to prep for the MAT. It's easy to understand and a great review of all the bits of information that you forget over the years.
