Format:Paperback
I had found the content of other numeracy testing books to be far too easy than is required in the actual tests. However, the level of this one is, as it promises, somewhat higher. Most people will probably need to spend some time brushing up their general maths and statistics before they attempt some sections but this book asks questions of a fairly similar level to those in real numeracy tests and so is well worth buying.

On the first page of this book there is a warning that 'occasional errors can occur in a book of this kind'. Only when you try and use this book seriously do you realise what an understatement that is.
The frequency of errors (from simple typos to equations that don't add up) prevent this book from being a worthwhile purchase. You wouldnt expect it in the real exam, and nor should you expect it from a recognised publisher.
With proper editing, this book might be more deserving of your money

I'm using a version of this book which has a different cover to the one advertised, so hopefully this means that there is a new version of this book, which has fixed all the errors mentioned in other reviews. But, while this book is good for practicing higher level questions, many of the solutions are at best dubious, or at worst blatantly wrong/contradictory - which make it very confusing to use. I've used other similar publications and not been aware of such poor accuracy. Not to be recommended.
