Math can be hard, even with a goodly teacher.

Math Advantage 2009 isn't going to magically make you
good at the numbers, but if your already commited to
working at it, Math Advantage 2009 will give you a
hand up.

If your not really interested in math, don't waste
the money. If your already doing the work, this thing
will help a lot.

Being primarily self-educated when I decided it was time for me to learn algebra at first I turned to text-books but found that most were poorly written with many steps missing and often what few answers were given on self-tests were incorrect. Most textbooks are written to supplement class lectures and are virtually useless for learning on one's own.

Then I tried the Princeton Review Math Library CD ROM set, which was fantastic. The subject matter was logically organized and the presentation was clear and concise. The first level was a single mathematical principal which, if you were already familiar with it, you could pass and move on to the next. If it was something you were not familiar with you could click on it and get a detailed explanation of that concept (for example a rule of exponents) and, if that wasn't quite enough, you could click a button for an animated walk-through of a problem that shows you how that concept is used. At the end of each section was a self-test with ten questions that gave you practice and confidence using the principals given. Unfortunately as PC operating systems and hardware have moved on my disks became unplayable as the animation audio would 'stick' and repeat infinitely.

Searching for an alternative I purchased 'Math Advantage' hoping it was another Princeton Review but alas, as many of the reviews I read indicated, it is really a poorly written textbook shoved onto a disk. Most of the material is simply long text expositions with a video 'example' here and there where the legal disclaimer that runs before it plays is longer than than the scant and poorly presented 'information' it contains. Since I purchased it, it has been collecting dust and I have gone back to scrounging for a decently written textbook. Overall, very disappointing. I neither recommend this for adults nor for children.

This product is not good. While I can't really fault the math contained in the program, the delivery is very poor. You would be better off with a text book. The DVD freezes up - it must have some internal bugs. The graphics are elementary (at best) and the DVD is not interactive and I would not recommend this product.
