Very Nice Book, but...., May 26, 2005
This review is from: Lingua TOEFL CBT Test Book II: Practice Test 7-12 (Bk. II) (Paperback)
Positive views:
-6 Complete and very well made Tests.
-3 Cassettes.
-The Reading Section is more difficult than in the Real TOEFL CBT. This way, you can practice the most complicated aspects in the Reading Part.
-Full answers keys, with explanations and listening Scripts.
-If you have further questions, or do not understand the explanations in the book, just go to the homepage and ask them!
-I got 257 and it was the first time I took it! (Listening 24, Writing 26, Reading 27, Essay 5.0) I used to be very bad in reading, yet, I improved a lot with this Lingua TOEFL CBT TEST BOOK!!
Negative views:
-Few mistakes in the answer key.
-Some explanations are vague. Therefore, you have to enter to their homepage and ask them for a better explanation.
-There is no way to know the score you got in these mock tests.
-CD Contain only one 1 Full Test and it is the same as the first test in the book. There are some programming errors: the real score does not show up, you cannot review the test, and you cannot print your essay nor review it.

Everything you need to study!, May 16, 2004
This review is from: Lingua TOEFL CBT Test Book II: Practice Test 7-12 (Bk. II) (Paperback)
With audio cassettes and a CD-ROM, this books completes an excellent study guide system. This is a companion book to the first study guide, which includes the first six practice tests. You can study all parts of the test with this book, including new question formats. This is also a good resource for teachers who need extra help for their ESL students or who are teaching students who are studying for the TOEFL.
The book is written by a team of writers with experience in the TOEFL and ESL, so the explanations and guides are clear and precise. Students will be pleased with the ease of understanding and with the thoroughness of the guide.
This book specifically addresses the CBT, so is an asset for those studying to take the computer-based test. Especially use the CD-ROM, which will help familiarize you with the format of the CBT.
