Editorial Review: Product Description: In the current No Child Left Behind education environment, test taking is more important than ever. A must for parents helping their children understand the important thinking strategies in all test-taking areas, Gruber's Essential Guide to Test Taking: Grades 6-9 helps them realize their child's true potential. Using the exclusive Gruber methods, this book will give parents and teachers strategies to "nip in the bud" any faulty thinking approaches when it comes to education and testing, and enforce the correct approaches. Gruber's methods are a true confidence developer for children. Parents often claim when working with these books with their children that they wish they would have been exposed to this material when they were in school. "His methods make the questions seem amazingly simple to solve." -Library Journal "Gary Gruber is the most prominent guru of test preparation." -Chicago Tribune "Dr. Gruber is recognized nationally as the leading expert on the SAT and originator of the critical thinking skills necessary for use on standardized tests. His results have been lauded throughout the country and his personal presentation of his methods spreads 'contagious enthusiasm' like an epidemic with his audiences." -PBS Average Rating:
 Rating: - Great find...not too many books out there with this great materialI mainly tutor high school students for the SAT and ACT but I have taken on a lot of students in middle school for subject tutoring and/or high school exam prep such as the SSAT or ISEE. Since I use Gruber's SAT book for high school students I need material for my younger students. This book is great but hard to find. As a tutor, the book provides very easy instruction. My students like the challenging questions but easy to follow examples and explanations. 5 Stars!!! ... Read More
