 Rating: - Good familiarization with computer format of testThis is neither the best nor worst prep book I used - I preferred the Barron's edition because the types of questions were varied and more like the real test's questions. This book focuses on difficult analogies as well but a lot of them are history related and more obscure than the real test - so in that sense, it made me more comfortable with analogies that at first seemed unfathomable, but could be decoded with more thought. The best part of this book is the review section for mythology, etc. ... Read More Rating: - MAT guidance and preparationI purchased this text with CD to improve my MAT score for my Doctorate. It is helping and in the spring I will take the MAT to get (hopefully) a higher score. It is very informative and the CD works well with a Windows based operating system. Rating:  - Mac users bewareOne of the reasons that I was so interested in this particular book for MAT review is that it came with a CD-ROM of pracitce tests. However, what was not clear before ordering was that the CD-ROM is not compatible with Mac computers and will not work. If you use a Mac, the CD is useless to you, so keep that in mind. I was really disappoined. Rating:  - Excellent book for reviewing for the MATI purchased this book to prepare to take the MAT so I can get admitted to graduate school. The book went above my expectations. As a result of scoring very well on the MAT, I was able to get accepted into the graduate scool of my choice. Rating: - Test PrepI found this book very helpful while studying for the MAT. The CD with the practice test are extremely valuable when studying,and really help to get a great over view of test material.These practice test are very simular to the real MAT. If you are able to score well on these practice test then the real MAT should be no problem.
