Passing the test also makes them eligible for community college admission, even if they lack a high school diploma. The book presents two full-length model exams plus a diagnostic test to pinpoint weaknesses. All test questions are answered and explained. Subject review chapters cover basic writing skills, reading comprehension, and mathematics, including arithmetic, algebra, graphs, measures, and plane geometry. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Do not use this book!I bought this book to use as a study guide, and it is horrible! First of all, I found a number of mistakes in the book. For some of the practice exams throughout the book I found conflicting answers in the answer keys. Also, I felt it really did not prepare me at all for the math section on the test! This is the only book I used to study, so I don't know what other book to use, but I can say don't use this book!!! Rating: - Waste of TimeI bought this book and used it for weeks to help my son study for the exam. This was a waste of time as the book is obsolete. The test has changed and the book did not prepare my son for the test. I want my money back. Rating: - outdated study guide!As others have noted, the CHSPE has been updated and changed! This book does not begin to prepare you for the math on the test. The study book for the California High School Exit Exam is a much better choice now. Rating:  - Didn't cover what was on the actual test.I took the test today and have been reviewing using the book. The Math part didn't really tell much about what was going to be on the test. Rating: - HORRIBLEdon't buy this book it doesn't prepare you for the " new " CHSPE. I studied for weeks and had the stuff in this book memorized but it didn't help. This book is useless because the CHSPE changed. Find a book that helps you prepare for the new one. I wish I had read these reviews before studying and taking the damned test. AUGH.
