First the bad news, there are a couple answers that are incorrect in this booklet.
The good news, in California this book was helpful for preparing for the exam. Although the manual did not give away the official test answers, the book prepared me for grammar, puncuation, reading, and math. Brushing up for the exam kept me from feeling like a complete fool the day of the exam.
 Not applicable in New York.... August 20, 2006

The book, while succeeding in getting you into a "Taking the test" mindset, failed in applicability here in NY state. The civil service test here bore no resemblence to the types of test questions or format as presented in the book. Other texts for specific careers, such as police or firefighter, have been far better in my experince in being pertinent to the topic, some had even had questions almost identical to the test I took.
