5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST GUIDE FOR THE NET TEST- PERIOD!, August 1, 2005

This review is from: Study Guide for The NET, The HOBET, The HELP Entrance Tests (Paperback)

Anyone who is stressing over the NET test needs to buy this book-ASAP! The book provides several practice tests for the math and reading comprehension sections. It also provides sections that thouroughly go through every type of math problem, and every type of comprehension problem. The practice tests are set up just the way the actual test is and the level of difficulty is the same as well. The only thing that you need to watch out for is the fact that the book only provides 20 practice questions for the reading comp. I just took the test and mine had 33 problems. So, just factor that in while you are doing the comp. practice tests and you will be just fine. This book helped me to walk into the NET test with confidence and to pass it with flying colors. If you buy this book, read it carefully and do the practice tests several times, you will be more than prepared for this exam. THIS IS A GREAT GUIDE!!!!

This review is from: Study Guide for The NET, The HOBET, The HELP Entrance Tests (Paperback)

After taking the NET I found this book helped me with the math portion but not with the reading portion. The reading portion of the actual exam was much harder than in the book. If you need to brush up on your math skills, this book is excellent for that. But make sure you prepare for the reading on your own. (Inferences, predicting outcomes, etc.) The guide book is very expensive for the size, but if it helps you it's worth the money.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Math Review, September 14, 2007

This review is from: Study Guide for The NET, The HOBET, The HELP Entrance Tests (Paperback)

This guide provides a rally good math review section, the English Comprehension section was ok-but left me wanting more. On the actual exam, I had 33 questions and a time limit of 30 minutes. So you have to practice timing yourself on the practice quizzes. I also found the practic quizzes easier than the actual exam, but that's the luck of the draw. (some of it may have been stress related b/c of the time limit)
Overall, I would still get this because I would have done horribly without the refreshers.
