4.0 out of 5 stars Math section was very helpful., March 6, 2003
This review is from: Texas Academic Skills Program: Preparation Guide (Cliffs Test Prep) (Paperback)
I used this book to study for the MTEL, the teacher exam in Massachusetts (they don't have their own study guides). The math section was VERY helpful. I did not need help in the other areas of the test, so I skimmed over it, but it was useful as well.
