Nice basic review and quiz. I liked the cliff notes from stoelting. I have been out of school for ten years and dont even have my book anymore. They made the material simple. Too bad its only the first 3 chapters. I guess the rest of the book will come out later. Great for review if you are rusty!

This kicks butt. Test is good but I like the cliff notes from Stoelting. It seems easier to understand. All the test answers are in the notes. They dont tell you to read the notes before the test. It helps. Great review.
