Title: A "can have" Book
Review: For a point of reference, I purchased this book only days before my Phase I exam. Like a previous reader, I too believe this book was not that great as a "test preparation" guide. However, I don't believe this to be the objective of the author, Ackerman. Had it been, I would have given it a 2 out of 5. You're best bet for cognitive test preparation is to search for other guides or download similar (or harder) math exams, like I did.That being said, as a tool for those interested in a career with the FBI, I believe this book to be an excellent buy, hence my 4 out of 5 review. Although there were plenty of sections that I found very useful, such as the Selection Process Flowchart and the "Standing Out from the Crowd" chapter, there is a good deal of information in this book that would be very interesting to read, AFTER I finish my Federal Appliation for employment. Again, like a previous reader, I would say that the forms in the appendices are superfluous.
Is the review positive or negative?
