Synopsis
The Princeton Review realizes that acing the TAAS Reading and Writing exams is very different from getting straight As in school. TPR doesn't try to teach students everything there is to know about reading and writing -- only what they'll need to know to score higher on these exams. There's a big difference. In Cracking the TAAS: Exit-Level Reading & Writing, The Princeton Review will teach test takers how to think like the test makers.
This is accomplished by teaching students how to:
Eliminate answer choices using Process of Elimination and other techniques
Use TPR's Backsolving approach to answer questions when one is unsure of the answer
Organize ideas and stay focused with TPR's special "Writing Frame"
Test one's knowledge with review questions for each reading and writing concept covered
Ace the exams with our Texas Tool Kit: 6 tips for scoring higher
Improve one's score with TPR's grammar, usage, and mechanics review
*This book includes 2 full-length simulated exams: one each for the Exit-Level Reading and Writing exams. All of TPR's sample test questions are just like the ones test takers see on the actual exams, and every solution is fully explained.
