The best single GED book I have found

While this book is not as good as it could be, I have used it through a couple of editions preparing students for the GED and prefer it to several others I have tried. My favorite thing about it is that it highlights (in grey boxes) important things to remember, and chooses them well. It's awfully big to carry around, but it's a lot cheaper than trying to use many different books for each GED subject. I have my students purchase this one, and use it primarily, but then loan them other more specific books when they need more details, or more practice in a particular area. I try to get them to keep and use this book for a reference when needed, and it is pretty good for that. The science area is my least favorite (but maybe that's because it's my own weakest area).

You can't go wrong with this clear and thorough tutor.

This tutorial guide is the one to use if you want clear and easy to understand explanations of all of the subjects covered. My students like the clearness of the tutorial material and find it "friendly." This certainly is the book to choose if you are studying for the GED without a tutor. The only reason for giving it a 4 star instead of a 5 star rating is that it was published in 1994.
