EDITORIAL REVIEW

Many standardized tests-including high school entrance exams, SATs, civil service exams, GREs, LSATS, and others-use analogy questions to test both logic and reasoning skills and word knowledge. 501 Word Analogy Questions is designed to help students prepare for the verbal and reasoning sections of these and other assessment and entrance exams. By completing the exercises in this book, students can develop the skills necessary to tackle each type of analogy question. The questions increase in difficulty as the student moves through each exercise, and all answers are explained, using short definitions and terms that clarify word meanings for effective studying and positive reinforcement.

ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

Riddles, not analogies
~ Written on Dec 7, 2006. 26 out of 26 users found this review helpful.

This book presents far more word games than analogies--the relationships between the words presented are too often not the type seen in the SCAT test, or the "old" SAT. This is not a book to use if you want to prepare your child for the SCAT (testing to join the Johns Hopkins Talented Youth program, for example). I have taken (and scored very well on) many tests with analogies and studied and prepared my daughter for the SCAT, and was hoping this book would be useful for my son. I was ready to throw it across the room. The "right" answers for the relationships between the word pairs are often absurd, or based on the physical appearance of the letters in the word--or, the answer is incorrectly given because it mixes up the word pairs, and the actual pairings make no sense at all!
Instead, get Daily Warm Ups: Analogies; it is a GREAT book, though it leaves you needing more practice.
