Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - G.E.D
I had health problems that prevented me from finishing high school and it is now interfering with my furthering my career in nursing. This book has proven invaluable to me for showing me what to expect when I go to write for my GED. Practice exams, step by step explainations on how to figure out the answers and indepth information that I know will help me with my G.E.D exam.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The typos are useful!
Overall the book really is immensely useful for studying for the GED.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Barron's "How to Prepare for the GED" (Fail's quality Test)

While I did find the guide helpful, I also found a highly disturbing number of errors. Most of the errors I'm referring to go far beyond common typographical or publication errors. Considering the purpose of the publication, I expected quality but found a total lack of it.

Of particular concern, is the ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - These editors cannot calculate!
The book is pretty good except of the chapter maths. Maths is lousy. There are more than a dozen real terrible mistakes! I've never seen before a book with so many mistakes.
