5.0 out of 5 stars
Gift idea for high-school grad.
I really enjoy this book. If you have ever wondered what the BAR exam is like, or how smart an air-traffic controller is, this book will tell you! I bought this book when I was applying to nursing schools, to see what the NCLEX (nursing exit exam) would be like.

This pencil's pretty sharp!
The book is a terrific compendium of various and sundry exams. There appears to be no reason why these were included, other than being eclectic. I enjoyed trying my hand at some of the more obscure titles. One thing I do know, I won't be hired as a wine steward any time soon. For less than a $20 bill, it succeeded in straining my memory and my wit. It was a kick!

Another "See if You Can Pass These Tests" Book,
This review is from: How Sharp is Your Pencil? (Paperback)
This is the third book I've bought of its ilk. My high school students like the challenge of these various career-related tests, but only to a point--then boredom and frustration sets in. Still, I'm a trivia buff, so these are fun for me. My only complaint is that because the book is fairly old, the tests are very likely outdated. So, if you just want something to do and you actually LIKE taking random tests, you'll enjoy How Sharp is Your Pencil? like the rest of us geeks.
