Outdated
The 2008 version doesn't cover all of the FCAT data and AYP data charts that are on the test.It was somewhat useful but needs to be updated to match the latest version of the test.

Lots of errors
This book was somewhat helpful, but was riddled with errors.I found a lot of mistakes, both typos and downright incorrect information.This makes me wonder how many mistakes there were that I did not find.I guess that will be determined when I see my FELE test grade.Isn't there anyone out there who's actually from Florida who can give better insight as to what's on the Florida test?

Don't be surprised
A good preparation book, but don't be surprised to find plenty of mistakes and answers that are repeated or do not match the question. A little scary when your about to take the exam.

Excellent Service
I ordered the book on Saturday night. The book was on my door step Monday when I returned from work. I appreciate the excellent service. ... Read more

Product Description
Webster's edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number of synonyms and antonyms for difficult and often ambiguous English words that are encountered in other works of literature, conversation, or academic examinations. Extremely rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions are given lower priority in the notes compared to words which are ¿difficult, and often encountered¿ in examinations. Rather than supply a single synonym, many are provided for a variety of meanings, allowing readers to better grasp the ambiguity of the English language, and avoid using the notes as a pure crutch. Having the reader decipher a word's meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. If a difficult word is not noted on a page, chances are that it has been highlighted on a previous page. A more complete thesaurus is supplied at the end of the book; synonyms and antonyms are extracted from Webster's Online Dictionary. ... Read more

A Slice Of History That Would Otherwise Remain Not Chronicled
Henry Flagler is best known for being the power behind the construction of the Florida East Coast Railway which built the railroad bridges connecting mainland Florida to the Florida Keys. This was a major engineering accomplishment of its time.After the bridges suffered hurricane damage in 1935, the State of Florida acquired the remaining structures and incorporated them into the highway system to Key West.

Flagler was in oil, built hotels, and was part of Flagler's Kirkside, which is one of those details that would go unnoticed were it not for this work.Flagler was a man of significant accomplishments. This a part of Florida history I was not aware of and want to learn more. ... Read more
