5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Way to Study...Well Worth the Price, March 29, 2008

By	M. Bruner ""Deltareviewer" Real Page ... (Oklahoma!) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

There are over 600 flashcards that provide detailed tidbits that will increase your ACT score. The cards are small enough to fit in your backpack, purse or desk drawer. The cards are colored coded according to subject and chock full of information. The Math cards have information on general math (common terms, formulas, and concepts) and math problems (sample test questions and step-by-step explanations). Reading cards contain vocabulary (detailed with word, part of speech and pronunciation with the definition, synonym and word in a sentence on the back) and word roots. The Science cards cover general science, chemistry, biology, and physics basics. The English cards review grammar basics most commonly tested, word choice, idioms, prepositions and the new optional writing tips.

If you are preparing to take the ACT exam, this would be a great investment. As an ACT prep instructor, I recommend that my students get these cards and use them everyday. Not only do they serve as excellent study tools for the ACT but great for anyone wanting to brush up on their basic education.

These cards are terrific. They are a wonderful and fun way for two or more students to practice for the ACT. We are making it into a game like jeopardy.

An interesting way to study for the act. I can't say it is all that great. There are some good tips though.
