501 Grammar and Writing Questions: Fast, Focused Practice (501 Series)

I bought this workbook for a low price, used. I was concerned I'd find pencil marks, but there aren't any. Good overview of grammar points. Some things I can do quickly, while other sections are presenting a challenge. Good way to brush up those writing and editing skills.

This is a really good book for a skill assessment and quick brush up. Most of the questions are in multiple choice format and the answers are provided in back. They are usually accompanied with a simple reason why this answer is correct and the other choices are wrong. Admittedly, this is great for a refresher and/or for an assessment of problem areas. But to really learn how to apply these rules consistently, you'll likely need a companion to this book. The cool part is, if you take all the tests, you'll know which one. So, if you are looking for lasting improvement, this book will get your started, but it is probably best used in that context. However, if you just want a quick review, this will help.

This is a great book for any school child, which teaches us the basic of writing and grammar. It reviews everything one learns in grade school, and is extremely helpful. It is alos a great resource for teachers to give to their students.
