I am a full time professional test prep tutor. I work with hundreds of highly motivated, competitive students looking to gain an edge on being admitted to the most selective universities. This is the type of book that I love to find. Written by a tutor who works on these topics daily. I have just finished reading this book from cover to cover. Though I did not do all of the exercises, I will. And I will read the explanations. Reading the answer explanations is as important as reading the lessons, maybe more so.And I will have students buy this book. How I will use it is as it is intended: a workbook on areas where a student is weak. I can identify those areas and will assign that chapter as homework. A student does not have to do ALL of the book to get a higher score, just the chapters that are problematic.Because Richard is a professional tutor with many years of experience, he writes each lesson like a tutoring session - straight to the point, learn what you need to learn to get this type of problem correct, and then move on.I did read the 1 & 2 star reviews. I can understand their points, if you want professionally edited polish, go to Kaplan or Barron's. But they focus more on polish and not to the point tutoring. I love to read books by real tutors who work with real students, like Erica Meltzer (her ACT English book is a perfect compliment to this one). Like Erica, Richard writes in a "teaching" style, telling you what he knows from studying the ACT. The book flows like a conversation between a top-notch tutor and a motivated student. He teaches what the student needs to learn and then moves on. If he covered every topic in depth, this book would be thousands of pages long.
