The latest 5 star review of THE WORKBOOK FOR TEST SUCCESS came out today on Google Books and Amazon. Here’s what the reader says:
Excellent reading. This book helped me to focus not only on academic tests, but also in various situations of my life.

Dr. B hits the nail on the head when describing all the rollercoaster of emotions that a GMAT, GRE, LSAT and other standardized tests can cause in a student. I particularly enjoyed the exercises and recommend this book for anyone.
I’m particularly glad the reader picked up on how the book applies to a whole host of tests as well as life situations. Isn’t the “rollercoaster of emotions” she references something we all experience, at some point, every day?
