Good Study Guide

I meant to rate it less, I would probably give it a four. It's good for what it is, a study guide. You'll have to have science text books to help you study. The practice tests are helpful but some are shorter than the actual length of the real test.
There are not many praxis II study guides out there so I'd definitely recommend this one.

Good overview only, very little strategy, generalized outline of subject matter.

I only used this book for the Biology Content Knowledge test. There are only 75 questions in this book and the actual test had 150. Good book to help you get some reality of the types of questions they might ask. It helped me discover some weaknesses.

By the way I obtained my Biology B.S. in 1987, so I had to dust off quite a bit of knowledge and terms. Overall, this book is worth getting to help you focus, buying it used is a plus. I also used Cliffs Biology to review as well.

Useful, Boring, Informative

What can I say? It's a study guide for a test all Bio teacher wanna-bes gotta take. Not all that stimulating, unless you're really into the sciences. Still, it's useful for the praxis...and that's what it was made for.

reviews: page 1, 2, 3

Complete with a targeted review of all the material on the selected Praxis exam in addition to a full-length practice test, these test preparation guides are written by the makers of the real tests. Thorough explanations of the answers are provided and helpful test-taking strategies are found throughout the guide. The three categories of assessments covered correspond to the three milestones in teacher development-academic skills assessment, subject assessment, and classroom performance assessment. Reflecting the rigorous and carefully validated nature of the exams, these guides provide beginning teachers the information needed to succeed.
