5.0 out of 5 stars Good supplement for higher math, January 6, 2009
I bought this for my 9th grade daughter. She struggled at first to figure out how to use it and get used to what was expected. She had a C average in Algebra but used this as a tutorial for her final exam and made an A on the last test and final exam, giving her a B for a final grade. It really helped! Another reason I like this software is I paid one price for tutorials that will take her through Calculus. Big bonus! I'm looking forward to this helping in her upcoming Geometry class.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very mediocre, December 1, 2008
By chaz (amherst ma) - See all my reviews
This has plenty of information, but lacks exercises and practice problems - the stuff one needs to do to actually learn math. It's a hassle to navigate between subjects as you have to, for example, quit and close the Algebra program to look at Geometry, so cross-referencing is difficult.

Waste of $30. There's gotta be a better program out there.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Disappointing, April 13, 2009
By M. Gayton (Albany, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Being primarily self-educated when I decided it was time for me to learn algebra at first I turned to text-books but found that most were poorly written with many steps missing and often what few answers were given on self-tests were incorrect. Most textbooks are written to supplement class lectures and are virtually useless for learning on one's own.

Then I tried the Princeton Review Math Library CD ROM set, which was fantastic. The subject matter was logically organized and the presentation was clear and concise. The first level was a single mathematical principal which, if you were already familiar with it, you could pass and move on to the next. If it was something you were not familiar with you could click on it and get a detailed explanation of that concept (for example a rule of exponents) and, if that wasn't quite enough, you could click a button for an animated walk-through of a problem that shows you how that concept is used. At the end of each section was a self-test with ten questions that gave you practice and confidence using the principals given. Unfortunately as PC operating systems and hardware have moved on my disks became unplayable as the animation audio would 'stick' and repeat infinitely.

Searching for an alternative I purchased 'Math Advantage' hoping it was another Princeton Review but alas, as many of the reviews I read indicated, it is really a poorly written textbook shoved onto a disk. Most of the material is simply long text expositions with a video 'example' here and there where the legal disclaimer that runs before it plays is longer than than the scant and poorly presented 'information' it contains. Since I purchased it, it has been collecting dust and I have gone back to scrounging for a decently written textbook. Overall, very disappointing. I neither recommend this for adults nor for children.
