Customer Reviews

The best study guide out there!

I would definetely recommend this book for preparation for the civil service exam. Plenty of practice questions in this book.

Very pleased

One can only hope that the product and the shipping are just as described--and that is the case here.

Outstanding Study Guide

I took a civil service test after using this book and scored 100! I have been out of high school for a while and really needed a comprehensive review. The sample questions and practice tests were excellent. I found the math section difficult but it was well worth the effort. I am definitely keeping this book for future reference.

Want to ace a civil service test?

I took 4 civil service tests after reviewing the questions in this book. I have been out of high school for a good many years and needed something as a review for the tests. The book gives sample questions and does excellent job of explaining answers. A good book to hold on too for future reference.

Great Book

This book is just what I was looking for...so many things I have forgotten over the years; and I love the practice exercises and sample tests.
