Complete with a targeted review of all the material on the selected Praxis exam in addition to a full-length practice test, these test preparation guides are written by the makers of the real tests. Thorough explanations of the answers are provided, and helpful test-taking strategies are found throughout the guide. The three categories of assessments covered correspond to the three milestones in teacher development-academic skills assessment, subject assessment, and classroom performance assessment. Reflecting the rigorous and carefully validated nature of the exams, these guides provide beginning teachers the information they need to succeed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Praxis study guide, more info needed, September 20, 2005

This review is from: Study Guide for the Middle School Tests (Praxis Series) (Paperback)
The guide provides lists of all the topics that you will be tested on but does not provide explanations of the terms and topics. I had to spend cosiderable time on my own researching the information needed. It would have been helpful if some of this was included in the guide. However, the practice questions were very helpful as were the explanations of the right answers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Middle School Tests (Praxis Study Guides), March 5, 2006

This review is from: Study Guide for the Middle School Tests (Praxis Series) (Paperback)
This book was moderately helpful. I used it for the Middle School Math portion only. Overall, the problems given on the test sample in the book were not as challenging as the ones presented on the actual test. There is no information regarding how the test is evaluated so that the test taker can approach the exam as efficiently as possible. I found this especially disappointing. There was really not much more information that the free information that can be accessed at the ETS website. For the price, the book was not a particularly good value.

This book is worth the money. It lays out to topics to study and provides a practice test. I bought this book to review for the middle school math praxis and am glad I did since I wouldn't have thought to review some of the topics listed in the book. You'll need some text books and the internet to study but it's a good guide.
