Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An Excellent Review Guide for CBEST
An excellent, comprehensive review guide for CBEST. Although CBEST is not the most difficult examination, it behooves you to review the format and familiarize yourself with the level of 'difficulty of, or the lack thereof, the exam. Familiarity does help. I used this guide for two hours the night before, and I passed with fairly high scores (close to 240) in all three sub-sections. I got it very cheaply, so the investment was well worth it. Good luck to all!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - CBEST Tip.
I just passed the CBEST, and felt I should write a review because I know this book helped me pass. As you have seen there are many books on the market, but after reviewing a few and reading some reviews, I decided to go with this one and it helped.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It helped me pass the CEBEST the first time!
I am so thankful that I ordered this guide to help me prepare for the CBEST. It is the only book I used and I passed the first time I took the CBEST. This book coveres everything from test taking tips and strategies to teaching you how to complete each section and pass. It even teaches easier ways to complete some of the math problems that save time.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Did not find the book useful
I followed all the advaice in the book and did poorly. I would have been better served using the CBEST on-line practice tests.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent source of material!!!
"Cracking the CBEST" book is an excellent source of material. It explains in great detail how to solve the problems of reading, mathematics, and writing. Though the methods of cracking the problems are simple, it gave me confidence that under stress of test taking I can succeed because the solutions do not bombard you with over explanations. Everything is simply laid out and I felt that I didn't have to guess for the answers because the solutions teaches you how to approach each problem. I felt ... Read More
