0 of 0 persons found the following review helpful. A better NJASK book is out there…… By Sam Overall, this book was informative and detailed. But that’s where the positives end.
Problems:
1. My son found a couple of typos in the answer key which was exceedingly frustrating.
2. The reading was elaborate but my son found that this book did not support him on his NJASK as much as he had hoped. Some of the questions on the NJASK were connected with the ones in this book, but the open-ended questions were dissimilar from those in this book and much more complex.
3. The selective information was not given in an easy-to-read format. Rather the book was just stating facts and numerous explanations.
I think that there is probably better book out there, that gives elaborated data in a more likeable way. For the price, though, this was partly satisfying and in all likelihood helped my son on his test, even if it was by a little percentage.
