I took the Praxis in January of my second year of graduate school. I bought this book the summer before, started carrying it around 6 months before the test (there is a definite period where you carry it around without studying), started looking at it about 4 months before the test, and actually started to study intensively about 3 months before the exam. I alloted 1-week her chapter with an additional two weeks to take the practice test and study what I missed. Rather than taking a lot of notes and making flashcards, I highted the things that I didn't know (to look back over later). If there were areas that I had forgotten, I looked back at class notes and texts (and took a few notes). In addition, I took the quiz at the end of each chapter and studied the questions that I missed (i.e., found the answer and why that was the answer). After finishing the book, I bought a practice test from the Praxis website. I passed this, so I knew there was a good chance that I would pass the Praxis. I made sure to time myself and act it out like it was the real test to alleviate some axiety for the real test. I studied the questions that I missed, re-read my highlights, and re-read the end of the chapters as well as the quizes. The actual test seemed harder than the practice, but I received an even better score. The types of questions were very similar. Good luck! *Make sure to send your scores to ASHA before the test, or you will have to pay later. I made this mistake.
A flashdrive with practice tests should come along with this book. I would not advise purchasing this book without the accompanying flashdrive. For the money, you can buy this through ASHA or ProEd WITH the flashdrive. I hope you learn from my mistake.
If you need to prepare for the PRAXIS don't purchase from this buyer go directly to the proed website they offer the book and flashdrive with 4 praxis sample tests for 120 and this seller is selling the book alone for 150 and won't allow returns even though NOWHERE is it stated that all sales are final. The book is the best out there but don't buy it here. Good luck future SLPs!
This absolutely did the trick for passing the PRAXIS the very first time! If you're considering the newer edition versus this one, I'd say go for this one... My roommate bought the newer edition, and while it's nice to have updated information (such as the DSM-V classification of autism spectrum disorders), this will do just fine for the sake of studying for the PRAXIS.
I am very disappointed that this DID NOT INCLUDE The practice exams flash drive, which are referenced in the very first page of the book. The whole reason for buying it is to study and then Practice!  did not specify that it would not be included, and I would have ordered elsewhere had I known this would not come with the manual.
The setup of this book is great! I appreciated the straightforward text in each section, the summaries at the end, as well as the chapter quizzes. However, with the revisions between the second edition and this edition, I found MULTIPLE errors within the chapter quizzes and the flash drive tests. Had I not had the strong background knowledge, I would not have even noticed that the answer keys had completely incorrect answers provided. This is an issue, I plan on emailing the publisher about, because these errors need to be fixed prior to the making of a new edition. For as much as I paid for this resource, I am highly disappointed with these careless errors.
Advanced Review of Speech-Language Pathology: Preparation for Praxis and Comprehensive ExaminationThis manual is a resource to which you will refer throughout your speech pathology practice. It is well organized, thorough, well illustrated and comprehensive with everything you need to know to pass the PRAXIS exam. PLUS, it includes a thumb drive (hidden in a band you can wear around your neck) with a series of practice exams that emulate the content and conditions of the PRAXIS exam itself. This was recommended to me by a fellow professional. I cannot recommend it highly enough to you.
This is a great reference book for studying for the Praxis. It gives you a brief run down of main ideas (definitions, assessment, interventions, & references) per chapter which is great. Be aware that it doesn't really go too in depth so you'll still need your notes & tests, but it's still very helpful. I recommend getting the flash drive of tests because although there are about 15-20 study questions per chapter a full length test is helpful. I highly recommend it.
