5.0 out of 5 stars Buy the blue one!, October 26, 2001

By	Ray Harris (San Bernardino, CA United States) - See all my reviews

Until the third edition comes out (and that could be a while since this one is fairly new), this edition is the most up to date one available! The first edition still contains the old vocabulary portion which has been eliminated from the current Border Patrol test. If you wish to study the vocabulary section, I would recommend buying both books, but this is simply NOT necessary. This book gives you study tips, very realistic practice tests, and it helps you to find your weaker areas. Buy the blue one!

3.0 out of 5 stars INS Test Prep, February 20, 2002

By	Patricia Cummings (Honolulu, HI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book because I needed to study for the Immigration Inspector exam. Unfortunately, there isn't a book available for this exam, but this book was at least helpful. I took the test yesterday, and I was so glad that I had studied. There were 200 people taking the test, and at least I felt that I had a slight edge from studying. I wish there would have been more test exams in the book - there's only two. The Immigration Inspector test doesn't include any Spanish or Artificial Language sections, but I did use the Spanish section to brush up on my skills. It takes up to twelve weeks to get your results back, which the book doesn't mention. Good luck to all and study, study, study!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Save Your Money, May 25, 2006

By	T. S. Young (Lansing, Michigan) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you're considering buying this book...save your money. This book is the same as the online study guide on the Border Patrol's website. It has the same questions and the same alternative language. It does have a couple full-length practice tests. I was hoping for some insight into the actual test or some "inside" information that may not be outlined on the Border Patrol's website or in its' study guide. I was VERY disappointed with this purchase.
