I have used this review book since its first edition both for h.s. chem. and as a review in my AP chem classes. I don't think there is a more thorough or clearly written review book than this one on the market. For students preparing for the SAT II in chem, the book needs be supplemented with additional questions of the type used on that exam.

I'll keep this review simple. It's my aspiration to go into a chemistry-related field as my future career, and I wanted to purchase a book that could supplement the chemistry class I was taking in high school; one that took time to explain concepts in ways that maybe a standard textbook wouldn't. I bought this book for $4 (including shipping) from Amazon and used it all last year during my chemistry class. In my experience, it was helpful, extensive, and helped me grasp concepts faster and easier than if I had not had the book. It was just about the best $4 investment I've ever made. I think that most any high school chemistry student could benefit from having a handy book like this at their disposal. I highly recommend it for that purpose.

This book has helped me so much with honors high school chemistry and explains everything so clearly and the convenience of having 40 practice questions per chapter really helps me truly understand the concepts of each chapter. I recommend this book to anyone taking chemistry!!

It may be a little too detailed for the regents student. Since the regents is getting dumbed down, I reccomend getting an older copy of the book (before 2001)-- It has more details and helpful hints in it

This is about the best book on high school level chemistry I have come across. Albert Tarendash explains each concept with care and very helpful example problems are worked out. I would recommend this book to anyone who is taking an introductory chemistry course.

I love this book...I currently have about 4 chemistry review books, including an older edition of this book from my brother. The SAT II Books (like Princeton Review and Barrons) are good, but this book is very clear. There are a few trick questions, but mostly it is about the concepts. Very helpful with all the extra questions at the end of the chapter. Absolutely great! Thanks
