Useful - By: Dr. I. A. Pera, 28 Nov 2008 
It is an useful toolin preparing for the test. The average result you scorein the individual tests is very likely to be the one you will scorein the real test (e.g. I was scoring somewhere between 22 & 24in the practice tests from this book &in the real test I wasin doubt at two of the questions). The questions from the real test are very simillar with the ones from the book. I would recommend it.
Great book! with a great CD rom! - By: Chikochiko, 01 Nov 2008 
Just studying with this book was enough to pass Lifein the UK test! This is so much clearer than the official one published from Home office. The CD rom gives you so many sample questions & when I was taking the test I was confident enough with lots of practice tests from the CD rom. Highly reccommended study material to pass Lifein the UK test!!
Test passed with this book - By: J. Lunn, 18 Oct 2008 
My wife took the "Lifein the UK Test" today & passed. She revised hard for 2 weeksin her spare time using this book & CD only, plus the online practice questions which can be accessed free if you buy it. We decided on this book after reading reviews on Amazon. She found the questionsin the exam to be very similar to the examples online &in the book/CD. She had a lookin a bookshop at the official book & thought this book was more a precis of the knowledge required - the official book is more wordy & perhaps more difficult to follow.
A side benefit is now I can answer questions like, when did women get equal voting rights with men?(1928).
very helpful - By: D. Adams, 06 Aug 2008 
I have just taken my test last Friday & I passed first time! I finished the testin less than 2 minutes. I bought this book just to see how i was doing after having finished studying the original purple study guide book provided by the home office.
This book has been very helpful. You also get free access to their website when you buy this book. Compared to other websites the questionsin this book & their website are very similar to the questionsin the real test & there are no nonsense questions. Most questions are purely based on the study guide & I haven't seen any wrong answers to questions.
For as long as you don't miss anything from chapters 2-6, you will definitely pass the test.
I would recommend it to anyone who needs to take the test.
helped pass at first attempt - By: M. R. Shafique, 28 Jul 2008 
This book was invaluablein helping me pass. The official home office book is too difficult to read & study from. But this book really breaks it down to the basics of what you need to know & is perfect for people who have English as a second language. It helped me to pass at the first attempt & I'm sure everyone else will find it helpful too. You cant go wrong with this.
