Book Reviews of CliffsNotes Praxis II: Middle School Mathematics Test (0069) Test Prep
Book Review: Awful Review of College-Level Math NEVER Taught in Middle School
Summary: 1 Stars
I have been teaching middle school math for 3 years and will be moving across the country. In order to become certified in new state, the Middle School Math Praxis is required. I ordered this book to review and was ASTOUNDED at the level of the material and my failing scores on the practice tests in the back of the book. This material DOES NOT COME UP in middle school math textbooks. Feeling dejected, I completed the Praxis exam anyways since I had already registered for it. The Middle School Math Praxis is NOTHING LIKE THE PRACTICE EXAMS IN THIS BOOK. While I cannot refuse credit to an extensive (with frequent mistakes) review of math content in the book, the practice tests did not offer a real example of the actual test AT ALL. Buy the book for the review, but be well warned that the actual test is MUCH EASIER and related to middle school mathematics content than this book lets on.Book Review: Good Math Review
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is a good way to review for the Middle School Math Praxis II test. I skimmed the book for formulas and tried the test. If I got any answers wrong, I went back and reviewed the section in the book. This is a book for people who are math-oriented. If you are not a math type of person, you may find it difficult to use. It gives formulas for everything on the MS Math Praxis II test. The only thing I felt unprepared for were the constructed response questions. For those, you just have to have enough math knowledge to get yourself through them. Those questions are answered on grid paper which threw me off at first. If you are not a math person, I would use this book and then ask a math buddy for help when needed.Book Review: Save your money
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this book in hopes of getting a great refresher for some of the topics on the test. Only two of the topics in this book was on the test and that was only like 2 questions on the test! Get some current middle school and high school textbooks to study from. There were terms that on that test that they did not use when I was in school. It has 3 tests to practice in the back of the book which is great. It lets you know where you are lacking and what you need to study more.Book Review: CliffsNotes PRAXIS II: Middle School Math (0069) Test Prep
Summary: 5 Stars
Great book for those who need a quick review of basic algebra, geometry, data analysis and discreet math. It was concise and helped me a lot. However, I would only recommend this book if you already have a notion of what you are doing in math. It is not for the very beginner as it assumes some background knowledge. On the other hand, if you are preparing to take the PRAXIS II for Middle School Math,I would hope that you already have some background in math.Book Review: Don't waste your money on this book!
Summary: 1 Stars
This book is not for Praxis 2 at all. It should change the title not to mislead people. I bought this book and spent hours to master all the contents in this book, but I found out the real Praxis 2 was much easier than this book. Not even one question was from this book. Buy practice test on [] to get an idea of the real Praxis 2 math test. Don't waste your money and time on this book. Buy this book for different math tests, not for Praxis 2.
