1.0 out of 5 stars Errors throughout, June 12, 2005

This review is from: Prep for PRAXIS: PRAXIS II, 18th edition (Praxis II Exam) (Paperback)

I bought this book thinking it would be great for the 4 Praxis II exams that I am going to take. Unfortunately, there were typos and other errors throughout the book that changed the answers to the listed questions, or the correct answer wasn't even listed with the question. This book was poorly edited and the mistakes were not caught. I often found that the correct answer wasn't even listed with a questions or that there was more than one right answer. This is not a book I woud recommend until the errors are corrected.

I was not that impressed with the book. It only gave one practice exam in each field. It also didn't mention areas that should be reviewed before taking the exam. I took the general science exam and it was hard, hopefully I passed so I won't have to take it again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Outdated Information, October 29, 2006

Despite the 2005 copyright, this book has outdated test information, particularly for the subtest. It refers to a no-longer included section and has other inconsistencies with the current test. If you use this book, make very sure to read the test bulletin provided online very carefully to make sure you are studying for the test you will actually take. I found this book to be no help at all studying for the test. I had to get another study guide and luckily I did. Because of this other Praxis II study guide at [...](and prayer), I was able to pass the exam!! I really liked the answer key, not only did they explain WHY the answer is what it is, but why the other answers were incorrect. I found this very helpful in the areas I needed to strenghten. If you get no other study book, THIS is the one. I only had a total of about 8 hours study time with the Praxis II mentoring I received and I passed with flying colors.
