A Good Review Book

I found this book helpful in providing a review of the types of questions similar to those found on the actual FTCE General Knowledge Exam. The book covers question types and detailed answers for all four areas of the exam; Reading, Math, English Language Skills and the Essay. There are 3 full-length practice exams at the end with detailed answers. After being out of school for several years, I found the book useful in providing a review of general knowledge questions, especially the entire math section. The book contains a lot of pages and for those who don't have a lot of time to examine the book, you may want to skim through the sections and problems, then concentrate on the areas that you need more help in understanding/remembering; for me, that was the math section. The actual test includes a page listing some of the formulas you might use, but you still need an understanding of general math principles and problem solving to realize which formula/equation to use to answer the questions, not to mention how to solve the equation once you pick a formula to use. I felt that this book provides that understanding. I also purchased a Test Preparation Guide issued by the Florida Department of Education which can be downloaded from the FTCE Testing website for a small fee. It is a smaller guide, but I used this side by side with REA's book. Overall, I found the REA General Knowledge book helpful. I passed the FTCE General Knowledge Exam after taking it for the first time.

I passed using this text!

I would recommend this. After looking through this text and taking the practice tests, the real test was a breeze. (And you do not want to have to take that test twice.. it is long!)

This book provides good review...

I needed to retake the Professional Ed test 14 years after college graduation. This book was a great refresher for me. At least a dozen questions from the test were very similar (though not necessarily identical) to the practice test items from the book, and that could make the difference between passing and failing for many people. If you have absolutely no background in education, you are going to have to put a lot more time (like several months) and effort (like locating and reading many of the resources listed) into studying for this test, but this book will definitely help you to focus your efforts by showing you your strengths and weaknesses. Read the book, take the first Practice Test, and anzlyze your results (based on your missed items) to focus your study efforts. Make sure you read the explanations to help you understand any missed items. If you have an education background, though, and need to take or retake the Prof Ed test, this book is a great investment and confidence booster. I took the computerized version of the test, and used the study guide without the CD. I am very comfortable with computers. I am glad I didn't spend extra money for the CD. If you aren't comfortable with computers, you might want to consider purchasing the edition with the CD-ROM if you plan to take the computerized test.

Excellent Preparation

I started studying about 6 weeks before the test with this book. It reviews each section of the test. I took all the practice tests and the explanations are like extra review. I recommend that you take all the practice tests - many of the questions were close to the actual exam. Definitley worth the price to pass.

Good review and highlights of important topics

This book was great in helping me prepare for the FTCE Professional Education Test. I passed the exam and I do not have a degree in Education, however, I have had several classes in education but by no means do I know it all! So this book was a great help. The cliff notes of an Education BA. I thought the exam was easy and I only read half of the book, because it was about as boring as you can get. I recommend going to your local coffee shop for a couple of days and read the book with coffee and sweets!
