Editorial Review: Product Description: This test preparation book includes two full-length exams with detailed explanations modeled after the actual TASP test. Taken by full- and part-time students entering Texas public colleges, universities, or technical institutes, the TASP was designed to ensure that students obtain the skills appropriate to their grade level. Failure to pass any TASP section will result in the assignment of remedial course work in that subject. However, studying the comprehensive reviews in this book will fully prepare the student to pass each section. Reviews in mathematics, reading skills, and writing skills are presented along with tips and sample problems to help develop reading and writing skills, as well as problem solving ability.

The math drills have answer keys to them ... and better explaintions for the math. But it's still very lacking in the math. I suggest getting a NON-TASP math study guide instead to help you. The Reading and Writing Section of almost all books I have used are about the same all are very exceptable and useful. EXECEPT for the "Offical TASP study guide" which is just MEGA ALL AROUND BAD! ... I myself am returning to school after ... Read More Rating:  - I passed the TASPThis study guide was a tremendous help and I credit it with giving me the tools to help me pass the TASP. One note: on the tope of page 152, there is a misprint in the example for (2). It should be the square root of 80 minus the square root of twenty , not the square root of 90 minus the square root of twenty.
