Rating: Summary: Not as I expected Review: I bought it because it was the best bestseller among its kind. It has a lot of typos. The book is not well organized.
Rating: Summary: Apalling! Review: The amount of typographical errors is truly astounding for a book that has passed through 9 editions. The answer keys have so many errors that the book is of dubious merit. If the student realizes the answer the book gives is wrong then hopefully s/he has the means to find the right answer. Otherwise, the student is just left insecure, frustrated, or mislead. Upon what survey do they make their claim that this is such a popular book??? The editors really, really need to proof read their text better - it is literally embarrassing. The current level is not competent enough to be deemed professionally done. If this book is representative, would I trust them for further books like SAT Preparation? They must do better than this to be competitive.

Rating: Summary: Apalling! Review: This terribly edited book does NOT include any ISEE info for the Lower Level test.
