Alright, so I grabbed this workbook hoping it would be a game-changer for my kiddo prepping for the IAR test. Here's the real tea:
First off, the format? Weird. Each passage only has ONE question. Like, what? The actual test isn’t like that at all. Felt kinda pointless drilling with just one question per passage.
BUT—I did like how it broke down skills separately instead of jumbling everything together. Small win, I guess.
Oh, and that online access they hype up? Total letdown. It’s only for one kid at a time. How’s that supposed to work for a whole class or tutoring group? Ugh.
That said, my friend’s son used it and actually improved his score! So maybe it clicks for some kids? Still, I expected way more for the price.
Final verdict: Meh. Could be useful as extra practice if you overlook the flaws, but don’t expect miracles.
