[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-28 Summary: Very well written and highly entertaining ... I must say this Kindle book was a nice surprise - although the topic might discourage many people from browsing this book at all, I find the book to be very well written and appropriate for all audiences regardless of educational background. Formatting on the Kindle is overall acceptable, but with the occasional missing word or sub phrase, like in this example in Locations 2933-42 "Thus February 12, 1809, has and 14+14 = 0, so ..." ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-05-29 Summary: Only Book I Needed for a 780 ... Ok, I know some people are shooting for perfect 800s, but I was scoring in like the 600s on my first practice test, and with a little help from this book, I achieved a 780. Sure, there are some errors in here, but it's like that with almost all of the prep book companies out there. I believe it's just something you have to get used to. The questions in this book are definitely tough-- tougher than the real thing, in my opinion. But that just helps you over-prepare and score higher! Kaplan and PR's practice questions ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-06-25 Summary: Awesome Review Book!!! ... This is a great book for any high school student who wants to score high on the SAT II Math Level 2. I prepared only from this book for about three weeks, and received a 760 on the real SAT Math Level 2. It is evident that this book contains much harder questions than the real thing, but that is just what makes this book so great. The fact of the matter is that when I took the test, I breezed through the harder questions because this Barrons book taught me that the hard questions are easy. This is overall the BEST ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-12-05 Summary: surprising ... I read the other good reviews about this book and decided it would be worth trying out even though I had very little time before taking the GRE to study with the book. I have it under good authority the brand Kaplan since it helped on my other standardized test scores and this proved to be VERY helpful as well. It helped me raise my math score by over 100 pts which was totally exciting since I never was a math wizard or anything; I would highly recommend this book for other to use as well!! ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-02 Summary: Lots of practice ... Lots of exercises and more in-depth explanations for when a crash review is not enough. It could easily become an elemental math/algebra/geometry/statistics review textbook and, at the same time, contains lots of tips to prepare you for the standardized nature of the GRE. The book is kind of heavy but the material is durable. ...more

Well, it's amazing how much I've forgotten since junior high school about algebra! I purchased BOTH of Danica's books (Kiss My Math and Math Doesn't Suck) so that I could educate myself and help my son through junior high pre-algebra and algebra. Danica explains the information clearly and in a fun way that makes it understandable even to someone who has been removed from it for more than a few years. I liked how the cover reminded me of a magazine cover. ...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-02 Summary: Good idea ... I have this book and "Math Doesn't Suck" for my daughter. She read the first book when she was 9 and loved it. We got the second book when she was 11 and missed the mark a bit - it's too easy. If your daughter is at the point where these books will challenge they are great and I highly recommend them. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-11-19 Summary: Valuable GMAT math refresher, especially good for people with rusty math skills! ... I self studied and scored a 770 on the GMAT. Here are my thoughts on the Kaplan GMAT Math Workbook: ===== OVERVIEW ===== The Kaplan GMAT Math Workbook deals exclusively with the quantitative section of the GMAT. Even though the math tested in the GMAT is quite basic, even elementary math subjects will seem like rocket science if you've been out of school for a long time, which is why a good math review is always welcome. And here is where this book comes in. The Kaplan Math Workbook is both a general math refresher ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-27 Summary: Maybe too optimistic, but nothing helps as much as basics ... I got 99th percentile on my GMAT 750(49, 42) and i used 3 books: this one, Kaplan's book with CD and Verbal Workbook. I had access to PR book and PP, but I did only tests from those. I found Kaplan's materials of quality and difficulty. Some whine that Kaplan is too hard, but that's good - if you can handle Kaplan, you can handle old good GMAT. PROS: - Very short and condensed math reviews - straight to the point - No smart-aleck advice about some stupid tricks - only math review - exactly what I needed - Solid problems ...more
