A real grade-saver
I bought this study guide for my daughter who is taking high school AP Chemistry using the associated text book. She was having difficulties understanding both the teacher and the text book, and had failed a test. When she received the study guide, she spent about a week going through the exercises and explanations for the first 7 chapters of the text book, and improved her understanding so much that she scored a "B" on the next test. Since then she has consistently scored "A"s on all subsequent tests by reviewing the concepts in the study guide and working the examples before doing her assigned homework, then working the quizzes in the study guide the night before her tests. The study guide is well-written, in many cases it defines concepts better than the text book, and presents the material with workable problems so that students learn the concepts in a more hands-on manner. It is worth every penny of the price.
Excellent Study Guide
This study guide is the perfect companion to Zumdahl's textbook. What I enjoy is that concepts from the text are presented in a slightly different way so if you didn't grasp it Zumdahl's way, you can grap it the author of this study guide's way. Also helpful are the practice problems and quizzes at the end of each chapter. This is what a textbook study guide should be. A must have if you are using Zumdahl's text.
