BUYERS BEWARE!
DO NOT BE FOOLED AS I WAS! I ordered this study guide in preparation for the ASE tests that I was going to be taking this fall.This guide is very poorly put together and NOT EVEN PROOFREAD apparently...it's a complete joke!Let me give you a few examples of why this is a HUGE waste of your money.

First of all, as you may or may not already know the ASE test questions are copyrighted and therefore CANNOT be reproduced.This means that the "sample questions" in this guide are not ACTUAL ASE questions, but rather questions that the author of the book made up that are designed to be similar in style to the ones you would see on a real ASE exam.ALL study guides are this way, which is fine so long as the person making up the questions is somewhat competent...the person who wrote this book IS NOT COMPETENT.Many of the questions are quite misleading, and some of the answers are just plain wrong! EVEN according to the information that THEY THEMSELVES give in the study guide!

There are so many typo's and mistakes in this book I got the feeling I was reading a book report written by my 3rd grade sister.

Each sample question is SUPPOSEDLY linked (by way of a reference number with a corresponding section) back to the section that explains how to do the procedure from which the question was based.THERE WERE SEVERAL SAMPLE QUESTIONS THAT LINKED BACK TO A SECTION IN THE BOOK THAT DIDN'T EVEN EXIST!!!!! I mean, how frustrating is that!

And then there is this hoopla that they sell you on about having "explanations for each sample question telling why the correct answer is right as well as why the wrong answers are wrong."WHAT A QUACK!A typical example of one of the sample questions and their "detailed explanation" for it would go something like this:

Question:
Technician A says [blah, blah, blah]. Technician B says [yada yada yada]. Who is correct?

a. Technician A
b. Technician B
c. Both Technicians A and B are correct
d. Neither Technician A or B is correct

Explanation:
a. The correct answer is a. "technician A is correct"
b. Answer B is not correct: [restates what technician B said WORD FOR WORD here] is not correct. [WHAT THE CRAP KIND OF EXPLANATION IS THAT???????!!!!!!]
c. Answer C is not correct because technician B is incorrect.
d. Answer D is not correct because technician A is correct.

WOULD THIS NOT FRUSTRATE YOU TOO WITH YOUR TESTS FAST APPROACHING?

Anyway, the first ASE study guide that I bought was a MITCHELL1 series study guide....after becoming very frustrated at the quality of the study guide I decided to purchase a different brand, so I went with the DELMAR series study guide and MUCH TO MY DISMAY when it arrived I found that it was THE EXACT SAME BOOK as the MITCHELL1!!!!BUYERS BEWARE!!! Apparently DELMAR learning bought out MITCHELL, as well as CHILTON repair books companies and now has some sort of monopoly on the whole market.It's sickening really...not because of the monopoly so much, but because DELMAR puts out such horrible products.

Anyway, I just thought I would give you all the heads up so you do not make the same mistake I did....when I bought the book there were no reviews on it so after my experience I thought SOMEBODY needs to expose this JUNK for what it is.I would put the company out of business if I could.DO everyone a favor...spread the word around that DELMAR does NOT sell good products!

ASE L1 Preparation Guide
This book will help with the test. Do be cautious when reading the explanations, I have found some holes in the explanations. Some of the problems presented in the questions are out there and in my opinion areprobably once in a career type of encounters. The majority of questions arevery helpful and the author is knowledgable.

Just like the test, but no theory to study
This book has a bunch of questions, just like the actual test. It willgive you the answer to each question along with an explanation. Down sideis there is no theory on emmisions operation. I do not reccomend it forsomeone who has yet to pass the test. Thoery is the key to passing the L1test. This book will not provide that service. ... Read more

You sent me the "Wrong Book"
I ASKED FOR BOOK "a-7" AND YOU SENT ME BOOK "a-1"

Below expectations
I just took the A7 test and found myself unprepared for some of the questions. This book gives you a decent overview of the basics, but there are some diagnosis senarios on the actual test that this book does not cover. The book is organized by the ASE task lists with many redundancies in the text when the tasks require similar knowledge. I expected this new edition to give me sample questions very similar to the current test. The practice tests in this book seem based more on the book than the real test. One might do well taking the sample tests if they read the book, but have a problem with some questions on the actual test that the book did not prepare you for. ... Read more
