I usually dont write reviews even though sometimes it's a bad product but I really am very disappointed with this book. The author did a very poor job!! this book would only be helpful for someone who had never and I really mean who had never taken a multiple choice test before. This book did not live up to its standard at advertised by the author. Through out the book, the author only briefly mentioned some techniques and never again elaborate on it.

The techniques(not much) listed can be find over the internet! That's another great disappointment. It was soooooo general that it doesn't worth the $15. It's only 76 pages and the author spend the first 50% elaborating on how well the book might be, but the other 50% just quick general (too general) points.

I also bought other books along with the mastering multiple choice by stephen merritt for a lesser price and the content of the multiple choice portion for those books came out to be greatly explain and very good.

the reason I am so upset is because the other books i bought ranging $5-$8 and they have such good content and info comparing to the mastering multiple choice by stephen merritt. If you dont see a new edition come out, don't buy this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Quick read...Could be cheaper that $15, April 11, 2010

The good thing about this book is that it was a quick 45 minute read. I thought it might contain more information than it did since it came highly recommended on a professional exam forum. That being said, there really isn't any magical or new method for taking a multiple choice exam. The book clearly states that at the beginning. The techniques quickly taught in the book stem from introducing the reader to the reason for multiple choice exams.

I think the $15 price tag I paid was a tad expensive given that the book was about 25 pages. I feel the book could be more succinct, therefore less pages and cheaper as some paragraphs rambled on.

In conclusion, the book helped me reinstate my faith in the test-taking principles I knew while I learnt 2 other points I wished I knew while still at university.
