M.A.T. review, July 30, 2010 By john
This review book is great, easy to read, and loaded with info and many pratice tests. I improved my scaled score from 400 up to 415 with approx 3-4 hours of review and practice tests.
Not the best MAT study guide out there, October 12, 2010 By AJ
There are two main problems with this study guide:
1. The practice tests are not in the same format as the actual MAT that you will be taking today; 120 questions in 60 minutes. This is critical because half of the battle when taking the MAT's is learning how to pace yourself properly so that you have enough time to answer all of the questions on the exam and perhaps have some time at the end to review your answers to questions that you found tricky.
2. The study content provided in this book is sometimes presented in a manner that is more complicated than it need be and I found that the Kaplan MAT guide was easier to understand, gave the user great MAT test taking strategy, had practice tests identical to the actual MAT, contained more content that was on the actual MAT exam that I took and overall prepared me so much better than the McGraw-Hill's MAT guide.
Yes, I have indeed read the book, October 5, 2008 A Kid's Review
Okay no not really. but after my parents read it no one would shut up about it in the whole house. and im only rating it 5 stars so my mom doesnt kill me.
this was a really weird book, cuz who wants to read a million analogies?!?! i had to write some of these cuz my parents got sick of it. so i dont know why im not listed as "co-author" where i rightfully should be.
kath A. zahler has written various other books including "What do you know about sex?" which really shocked me when i heard of it cuz she writes children's books and stuff usually. so yea.
and its like, a test in a book. how do u know if u failed??? y cant u just skip to the back and look at the answers??? thats what i would do.
