 Not great for PLT and content areas July 17, 2008
Not a great choice for PLT. This book only gives an outline of topics covered along with three practice tests. The content area sections only gives around 15 sample questions and answers, that's it. More than half of the book is dedicated to the PPST and they are covered in far more depth.
 Praxis Guide-Excellent prep material May 3, 2008

Great book to prepare for the Praxis series of tests. Excellent!! Great deal too!
From the folks who wrote the test April 27, 2008
First, let me say that this book is produced by the folks who write the PRAXIS tests, so there is a lot of useful information here. I only give it four stars, however, as I felt the Math (my weak point) review section was not that well organized; I think liberal arts majors (like myself) will appreciate Barron's Math section, as it seemed to me to be better organized, and subsequently, more helpful.
 Not for Content Knowledge takers April 3, 2008

I bought this book to study for the Elementary Content Knowledge portion of the Praxis II. What a waste! You are better off buying the Kaplan version of the Praxis study guide, it has more sample test and a lot more information on Psychologist for the PLT part. Don't waste your money on this book.
INCREDIBLY HELPFUL, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! March 17, 2008

This guide was perfect for studying for the Praxis Exam. The material is fairly basic to begin with but I would've had a much harder time on the exam had I not used this text to review. The guide reviewed all the basic materials you will need for the test, provides samples of all the types of questions as well as sample essay questions and different level graded essays. When I took the test a few weeks ago my essay topic was one of the exact topics from the book! The practice tests are super helpful and realistic, even if you are taking the computerized test like I did. This book allowed me to find all the information I may have already known and keep it available for the test. I was able to finish each section with time left over because I had the knowledge ready in my brain and the confidence of studying and taking the practice tests. I HIGHLY recommend this guide. (By the way, the scores are out of a possible 190 and I got a 185 Math, 184 Reading and am awaiting my writing scores - which I feel great about!) Good Luck!!
