1.0 out of 5 stars Probation Test, February 14, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Probation/Parole Officer Exam (Probation Officer/Parole Officer Exam (Learning Express)) (Paperback)
I was disappointed with this book. There was not one thing in it that pertained to the NJ Probation Test.
Therefore, I had no help and I had to pay for a copy of this book brand new. Needless to say, I failed the probation officers test by several points.

2.0 out of 5 stars State of Calif exam; do not bother, December 21, 2008

This review is from: Probation/Parole Officer Exam (Probation Officer/Parole Officer Exam (Learning Express)) (Paperback)
If you want to be diligent and study for an exam given in the State of California, do not waste your money. Get a real agent (parole/probation)to mentor you, you'll get alot further than buying this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not very useful, June 24, 2009
This review is from: Probation/Parole Officer Exam (Probation Officer/Parole Officer Exam (Learning Express)) (Paperback)
It was not very useful at all. The P&P test I took was completely different from the book and utilized little of the information. Worse, the book was in need of more editing. The answer key in the back would have the answers assigned to the wrong multiple choice letter. For example, the question on a practice test might list the answers in one order, like:

a.9 people
b.10 people

...and so on, but the key in the back would say that the answer was b, 9 people.

It made studying very confusing and overall I was really disappointed with the book.
