Excellent Book...use along with REA's

This review applies ONLY if you're getting a credential in California. I cannot speak to the MSAT of other states...California's new CSET: Multiple Subjects, is organized very differently from the MSAT's for other states. I have 3 pieces of advice if you're really serious about passing in California.Tip #1: Do NOT sign-up for 3 sections all at once. This is the kiss of death. I was warned by others and am grateful for this advice. When the state came up with the CSET format (subdividing the test into 3 sections), they apparently did so with the thought that it was perfectly acceptable to take up to 5 hours for 1 section...and believe me, it's not out of the question since there are essays to complete which should be well formatted to pass each subsection. Take 1 or 2 sections on each test date. I sat for 2 sections and completed reviewing my tests with only 15 minutes to spare in the 5 hours alloted. I scored almost a perfect score on the CBEST and so consider myself a good test taker. I also scored close to perfect on these two sections (Math/Science & Visual & Performing Arts/Phys Ed/Human Dev't). Thankfully, I did not sign up for the 3 section on the same day !Tip #2 Use the REA book as well to ensure adequate exposure to test questions and material. While Bobrow is excellent, there are only 2 sample tests. REA offers slightly different questions and 2 sample tests as well. It will round out your understanding and prepare you adequately.Tip #3: I strongly disagree that you will need to purchase the Hirsch books to pass as well. I purchased the 6th grader book just to see what was in it. There was 1 (one) question from the whole test that came straight from the Hirsch book. They're fabulously written books, but they are somewhat of a waste of your time for the purposes of passing this test. Good Luck,SZ

A Good MSAT General Study Aid

This is the book that Bobrow gives out to his MSAT seminar students. It was recommended to me by many people. It is extremely helpful to get to kknow some of the subjects that you may not have studied for a while, or subjects you've never studied! Also, "What Every 5th Grader Should Know" and "What Every 6th Grader Should Know" were extremely helpful in studying literature and history...while Bobrow's book gives history info in outline form (which is sometimes difficult to read), the 5th and 6th grade books give it in a more reader-friendly, textbook format. I read this MSAT book, and I took the MSAT and missed passing on the first try by one point. Don't do what I did and skip any of the essays, even if you have no idea what they are asking!!!

good source, but shouldn't be the only source

I just took the MSAT and the multiple choice questions in it where harder than on this study guide. Although it gives a nice overview of all the material, it doesn't go on much detail mainly on the history part. That is why you should look further into other sources to be really prepared. It does give a lot of good strategies to take the test. I recommend it, but in addition to other sources.

Taking the MSAT? This book is a study-guide must!

I have been studying for the MSAT for a few months now, and this book has made such a difference in my preparation. The book offers a thorough look at the multiple subjects that one will be tested on. Each subject is easy to read and follow by wonderful outlines and structure. There are also two full-length practice tests to help you understand the MSAT format. In addition the book covers MSAT scoring, general questions asked about the MSAT, and gives the reader helpful strategies for taking the test. After using this book as a study guide, I feel very confident and I am ready to conquer this test!
