Beating the CSET!

Book excerpt: "Beating the CSET!" will help both pre-service and practicing teachers in California pass the CSET Multiple Subjects Subtests I - III. Because passing the CSET Multiple Subjects test is now required for an elementary credential in California, this new text has been designed to address the essential time-management methods, essay and multiple-choice strategies, and content that test takers must master in order to pass Subtests One through Three of the exam. Unlike other preparation books, this text does not simply offer a copy of MSAT materials. Instead, the content, constructed-response and multiple-choice strategies, and special time-management models for the tests are all research based and tailored to CSET Multiple Subject content in great detail. People who used "Beating the CSET!" report: "I took all three sections of the CSET and passed- the first time! The invaluable time-management, scoring, essay and multiple-choice approaches all worked for each of the subtests, and the content is in abundance. I know for a fact that "Beating the CSET!" is the reason that I passed. Based on my success, I strongly recommend this book to everyone." "Sarah S., elementary teacher, McSwain Elementary School District" ""Beating the CSET!" helped me to manage my time during the test and provided guidelines and strategies that were helpful in making sure that I achieved a passing score. It also provided additional information as well as other resources to aide in my preparation. I highly recommend this text to anyone who wants to be prepared to pass this test the first time."
