Summary: Excellent Earth Science Guide
Review: Earth Science is every student's punishment. When I took the regents examination in the course the first time, I failed badly. My teacher misused all resources to teach, was poor in the subject, was an all around bad teacher and he got what came to him when 3 of the 60 people in his class passed. When I picked up this Barron's Review Book, it was everything I needed to know about the topic, better explained than standard textbooks and workbooks. This is a great review book, which got me a passing grade my second time hitting the regents. If you suffer with a subject, Barron's is a great review source, especially in Earth Science.

Summary: A MUST BUY!!!
Review: I am a striaght A student, and took earth science in 8th grade. I just didnt understand it. I had an 84 average teh 1st quarter. I bought this book and i had an A every other quarter, and I got a 95 on the regents. It is a great book with many questions that are similar to ones you will see on the real regents. It has many diagrams and even areal past exam. It's a very good, must buy tool.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: If you've been having trouble understanding the in-depth details of Earth Science and even just regular science, this book is for the new expert. It gives you plenty of details of every topic that you've learned in this course, and gives you many regents questions to study from (for the power pack).You'll be amazed, just like I was. The book contains a lot of pictures/diagrams/etc. describing what you are learning about to help you comprehend better what you've just sighted out in the units. One thing I appreciated is that if by any chance, if you didn't understand the topic you were learning about, just go back in the index and it will show a secondary page number or a page where it shows more analysis of the particular topic you're studying. Even though the Regents won't give you the exact same questions from an old exam on a new exam, it is still a very crucial part in studying old Regents questions. GUARENTEED: It will create more skills as a whole in terms of understanding the questions and answers; primarily eliminating answers that you cannot recognize or ones that don't make any sence, and keeping the one answer that makes the most logic or sence... This is a BIG help in trying to get a good grade on your exam. If you get the Regents questions book, you will be provided with answers to all questions, and it can really make you realize why that answer is the way it should be. It'll create more facts in your head. One thing is for sure, is that you can't miss this book. My point of view is that you should review throughly throughout this book, and review as many questions as you can. I did this, and I received an 86 percent for my average on the regents, and you can even do better that I can! NOTE: Order this book right when school starts or sooner, so you can be prepared.

Summary: earth science
Review: Listen, this book is mad good. I took the Earth Science Regents in 8th Grade in June 2001, and all of the material was covered by this book. The day before I took the test, I was cramming out of this book. Even though I was getting 95s in science, the material did not make sense. But everyday in May, I studied with another version of this book, and it helped refresh my memory of Earth Science. With this book, it helped me comphrend and ace the regents with flying colors. I was able to get a 88 in the regents exam from this book. I highly recommend this book to everyone that is going to take the Earth Science Regents in New York State. For the difficult comprehender, it will help build connections to topics that will help you pass the regents, and for the forgetful type, it will refresh your memory. Take my word for it, and buy it. Its worth the price it is.

Summary: WOW! TEST SCORES ARE UP^^!!!
Review: Wow!! I am in 8th grade and taking the High School Regent Earth Science course, and before I bought this book I was getting 50s and 60s on tests (my quarter average was a 84) and after I did the review questions in each chapter I havn't gotten anything below a 85 (now my average is a 94)!! This made my average go up 10 points, and if it can work for me, it can definitely work for you. My mom said it was the best money she ever spent, and I also bought the Barron's Regents Earth Science Exams and Answers book, but unfortunately it was a "little" overused and I can't read anything in it.. O WELL THIS REALLY HELPS! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! it even has a full exam in the back and a vocab section that shows vocab words to know for the test, it's really good!
