Cracking the GED, 2002 Edition

The Princeton Review doesn't try to teach students everything there is to know about English, mathematics, or analytic thinking. The Princeton Review just teaches readers what they’ll need to score higher on the GED. There’s a big difference. In Cracking the GED, The Princeton Review will teach test takers how to think like the test makers and:

• Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool the test taker
• Improve scores with test-taking strategies like Backsolving and Process of Elimination
• Ace the exam without needlessly memorizing hundreds of facts
• Master even the toughest sections: social studies, science, literature and more

** This book includes two full-length simulated GED exams with questions that are just like the ones test takers will see on the actual GED.
