Summary: content fine, but beware of "expiration" of online tools 2010-09-06
Comment: This is a great study tool, but when my daughter went to take the online practice tests, we learned her code had "expired", 5 weeks after purchase. No where in the materials does it state that you need to register online immediately. Very disappointing.
Customer Rating: 4 Star
Summary: Good starting book, but there are some errors 2010-07-08
Comment: I am a private math tutor and author of Math Study Guide for the SAT®, ACT®, and SAT® Subject Tests - 2010 Edition (Math Study Guide for the SAT, ACT, & SAT Subject Tests). I sometimes use the practice tests in this book as a warm up for students and then follow it with the official practice tests found in The Real ACT Prep Guide: The Only Guide to Include 3Real ACT Tests. However I found two errors in the math tests in this book:

pg 445 problem 39. The answer is C, not H.

pg 453 problem 58. The answer is -12/5. This does not match any of the answer choices.

Summary: Great Book 2010-07-06
Comment: I love the book. It makes studying for the ACT interesting. I enjoy the inserted humor.

Summary: ACT Book 2010-06-21
Comment: I like the beginning section of the book that tells you the good, the bad, and the ugly behind taking the ACT vs. the SAT. The practice tests were pretty helpful, and the real test ended up being easier than the practices. So this prepares you really well, much better than "The Real ACT Guide." I would definitely recommend this to somebody who has had trouble on the SAT and looking for something different. Just remember, some people are better at one test and others are better at the other, so just because somebody did poorly on his SAT does not mean he will do so poorly on the ACT, and vice versa.

Summary: An ACT Prep Must Have! 2010-06-01
Comment: As an ACT Tutor, I have found this book most helpful to use with my students. From math strategies to punctuation technicalities, this book covers it all. The Science section is extensive, and very helpful as it is bursting with strategies. The practice tests provided in the book are of moderate difficulty. I recommend this resource to any student who wants to be prepared for all 5 test sections and get inside the heads, per say, of the test writers. As the ACT is very time pressured, learning Princeton Review's strategies would be very beneficial to students. I also recommend this resource to any tutor or parent that is looking to help a student prep for the ACT exam. ACT prep can be rather arduous, but is always rewarding--good luck!
