Inhaltsangabe

PERT Test Reading and Writing Success Advantage+ Edition contains the most comprehensive prep and review materials available for the PERT Reading and Writing Tests.

This book contains seven PERT practice tests.

The first 137 pages of the study guide contain the same great material as Academic Success Media’s original publication.

There are three reading practice tests and three writing practice tests, with answers and in-depth explanations for each question.

Plus, there is a new PERT reading test and 40 new writing exercises at the end of the book.

The new writing exercises help students practice the most common grammatical and stylistic writing conventions assessed on the PERT writing exam.

The explanations to the answers contain exam tips and strategies for each question type on the real exam, so that you can correctly answer even the most difficult questions on the PERT reading and writing tests.

While other PERT study guides just give you a general review of reading comprehension and writing skills, our study guide is focused to cover the exact skills assessed on the PERT examination.

What is more, all of the problems in our book are of the same level of difficulty and in the exact same format as those on the actual PERT examination.
