Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - HSPT Test Review
We used this book to prepare for an upcoming high school entrance exam. We have since found several errors in the book, including 3 incorrect answers on a single page. Publishers should spend more time making sure these accuracy of the printed materials. It cheapens their brand. I would not recommend this book.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Filled with Mistakes
What a waste of money and fustrating for my daughter - this book is filled with errors, typos and mistakes. Never again McGraw Hill



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - McGraw-Hill's Catholic High School Entrance Exams (McGraw-Hill's Catholic High School Entrance Examinations)
Excellent tool for any 8th grader who needs to take a high school entrance exam for a Catholic High School. It was a complete review of all subjects and math and algebra were covered very well. The review tests helped my teen get an excellent grade on her entrance exams.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - BEWARE - DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK
I second the comments of the previous Reviewer. The Publisher and Editors of this book should be SUED for allowing so many errors. It is terribly frustrating for kids trying to complete 15-30 seconds per question when, a) there are no correct answers, b) there are multiple correct answers, c) there are typo's or missing information in the questions. And the Answer Key is full of errors too. Just awful !!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Book is full of mistakes--BEWARE--do not buy
This book is full of mistakes in the diagnostic tests, as well as the full practice tests. There are multiple mistakes in every section--verbal and math. Do not use the answer keys--they are wrong! OFten they contradict themselves. If you buy this, make sure you check your child's work, and correct the mistakes in the book.
