Summary: Too many errors for a 20 dollar book.
Comment: I'm giving this book two stars because the actual review material was amazing, and really helped me understand math.
However, this book has many errors. Most of the errors I remember were in the chapter with the answers to the drills and practice questions in tables. For example, for a couple of tables the page numbers the tables say they refer to are off. Another example, theres one spot where the answer in the answer column contradicts the answer the explanation says is correct. These kind of things drive me insane, and simply should not be in a book that costs twenty dollars. These errors are fixed by simple, simple proofreading.
I also bought Princeton Review's Chemistry subject test guide, and because of that other book I will never buy anything from this company again.

Summary: How did they make math fun???
Comment: This prep book is amazing. I've tried all the other companies and Princeton Review writes as though the people who are purchasing the book do in fact need help in math. I'm taking several subject tests and by far studying for math is more fun than for other subjects because of the ease of reading this book.

Summary: Accurate review book
Comment: I took the math IIC test earlier today and the Princeton Review book was on target. The practice tests were very similar in difficulty level to the actual test itself, and the book's lessons and suggestions were very helpful as well as readable.
I also own the Barrons review book, and while that was good to practice the toughest questions, it is really nothing like the test itself. So I recommend the Princeton Review over the Barrons to anyone looking for a sufficient review of the material and accurate practice for the exam.
