A great way to review math before a basic/intermediate level test!

I have been using this book in a remedial math class for the past two years, and it is very popular with my students. Here's what you need to know: it covers everything from the most basic of processes (addition, etc.) to more advanced stuff like algebraic equations and the like. It is NOT meant to be a good substitute for an algebra class, and if you're hoping to be college level just because you worked through this book, think again. It will get you most of the way there so that you can begin a real algebra course, but it won't take you further than that. It includes a pre- and post-test, as well as cumulative reviews. The explanations are basic and easy to understand, although there are a few I know I can explain far more simply. It gives the reader a short practice to get used to the concepts, and it's good about building on skills so that you can continue applying what you just learned as the processes get more complex. HOWEVER, it covers most topics VERY briefly; so if you don't get math at all, or you feel downright nauseous at the thought of doing math because you think it's the hardest thing on the planet, do not buy this book. You need something that will give you lots more practice. Finally, if your weakness is algebra, then I recommend another book in this series that focuses on algebra far more completely.
