This is the PERFECT study guide for the GED. I have tried other brands that are popular in textbook world but fail to give you a clear understanding and useful tips that you will not forget. I purchased this book with a calculator and am very confident in my approach to taking the GED. Why waste money attending a class when this book has everything you need. I strongly recommend to everyone.
My husband dropped out of high school at 16 and didn't try to get his GED then, now that he is older and trying to advance his career he needs to get his GED in order to further some of his education so we decided to do some work together to get him ready for the test. This study guide has helped build my husband's confidence while he prepares, he doesn't feel so out of practice now that he has made his way through the book. There are detailed sections explaining each area of the test as well as the types of questions that can be expected. When it came time to try some practice questions he was happy to have areas that explain the right and wrong ways to approach certain types of questions with explanations of answers easily accessible so if he is incorrect in his answer he can understand why and change the way he thinks regarding that subject matter. I recommend taking a lot of practice tests but this this study guide has definitely gotten the ball rolling for him and made him feel like he has a fighting chance for passing the test. I received a discount for my honest and unbiased review.
I received this product to help my stepson and a friend's daughter get prepared to take the GED. WOW! This book and the accompanying flashcards and practice tests are the COMPLETE and REAL DEAL to get prepared for the GED. I was a tutor in the past and used other materials to prepare my students for tests; however, I have never seen anything quite like this before! WOW!The topics covered are broken down into smaller more manageable concepts. I was so excited to see that there was a video to accompany almost EVERY concept! Between reading the book, hearing and watching the video, and using the practice questions, I will be able to help these young adults prepare for the test.I feel that the Mometrix study skills included are very well thought through and are extremely helpful. The skills are broken down and explained in detail for maximum use of time.I am very impressed with these materials and would highly recommend them to others.
I got the GED Secrets Study Guide book to help my best friend with her general education diploma studies. This study guide is stocked full of information. When I unwrapped the book I was pleasantly surprised when I found a FREE study skills DVD offer from the company. The reading level is perfect for the target audience of the study guide. It is formatted very well. The table of contents is broken out and subdivided so topics and subtopics are easy to find. All of the topics seem to flow nicely from one to another building on the previous concept learned. I like how it starts with Language Arts. That is very helpful for the student to understand proper language skills before diving into all the other topics. My favorite parts of the book are the top 20 test taking tips in the beginning of the book as well as the secret keys and general strategies for taking the GED exam. The content covers everything that is needed to know on the exam, some school districts might be a little different but so far it has been spot on for our area. It was even a great refresher for me as well. The practice questions were well written and very helpful. I also liked the answer key as it explained the correct answers in easy to understand language. I think the questions did a good job covering all the information in the book.Disclaimer: I got the GED Secrets Study Guide book at a discount price in exchange for my honest opinion.
I ordered this GED secrets book first and really like the information in the book.. Just to be on the safe side of things I wanted to make sure im learning everything I need to learn so I ordered the 2016 kaplan ged book as well...
There is an incredible amount of information! My confidence grows daily as I continue to work through the "Study Guide" and "Flashcards". I believe with all of the practice opportunities, I will be thoroughly prepared and successfully pass each test! Thank you for all of the wonderful resources and support that you have provided for my journey! I highly recommend your educational products. They are excellent tools that have helped me maximize the quality of my study time!
I was having difficulties with the extended response for the RLA portion. I read 2 different GED books, searched online & still didnt understand. I looked in this book and they explained it wonderfully! Without this book I would of never figured it out. It also provides links to reveiw video's. Which is an awesome added bonus! From start to finish this book is an A+
I've looked through it and I give it five stars. The layout is much more straightforward, as opposed to another GED guide I tried to work with. I especially like how there are no practice problems slowing down the reading, only the concepts to learn and how to use them. A fringe benefit from this is the aesthetic appeal -- there are far fewer gaping spaces on the page, which is what happens when the practice problems are several words and a number for each. This is probably usable for working space if you plan to write in the book, but obviously this is not possible when you are borrowing. The size of the book is something to mention, being more lightweight and less intimidating. When I looked for a GED book, they were all enormous, which gave me the impression I would never get through it. This layout has a lot of concise, well-organized information on each page and no unnecessary wording or pictures. I look forward to using this book to study for my GED and pass with flying colors!
