 Sample exams helpful, text is not always accurate April 5, 2006
The sample exams are the most useful part of this book (and comprise almost half of the book). Less than 100 pages of the 340 pages are devoted to an overview of intro psych (about 50 pages deals w/ studying and test-taking which I did not find very useful). There is a glossary which is helpful. A good deal of the material in the sample exams does not appear in the text. Some of the text is wrong. E.g., p. 94 says that conservation and reversibility occur during Piaget's preoperational stage, which is wrong -- it happens in the concrete operations stage. I stumbled on this via one of the sample exams. The Cliff Notes _Quick Review Psychology_ has a lot more info in it, though it has some errors too.
 Great study Guide for the CLEP September 8, 2004
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book gives a great overview of the subject of Introductory Psychology. It was the only book that I could find available as a study tool for the Intro. Psych CLEP exam. I read through this book in about a week, then took every practice test in the back, re-reviewing anything that I got wrong. I went in and passed the CLEP test after about 3 weeks of studying and practicing. Definitely a bargain!
