REA's test preparation book includes two full-length exams with detailed explanations based on official exams released by the administrator of the TASP. Taken by full- and part-time students entering Texas public colleges, universities, or technical institutes, the TASP was designed to ensure that students obtain the skills appropriate to their grade level. Failure to pass any TASP section will result in the assignment of remedial course work in that subject. However, studying the comprehensive reviews in this book will fully prepare the student to pass each section. Reviews in mathematics, reading skills, and writing skills are presented along with tips and sample problems to help develop reading and writing skills, as well as problem solving ability. All exam sections and review material were prepared by test experts in the educational field to assure their accuracy, difficulty level, and application to the actual examination.

NOT STATISTICS BUT INDIVIDUALS live in these stories of personal quests to develop successful learning strategies. These three students illustrate different learning styles. One student was a strong visual learner with a need to acquire speaking and listening skills. One exhibited such speed of thinking that he could not physically record his thoughts legibly. One had such a strong auditory learning style that spelling both predicable and unpredictable words frustrated her. No one method could satisfy the needs of these elementary students. Instead, approaches tailored to their needs were designed so that their academic careers would be enhanced.
