Kaplan U.S. History And Government Essential Review

Rating:
Summary: Good info, but a little frustrating.
Review: I bought this not as a student, but someone trying to learn more about our history. It is full of good information but it's all in an outline format and fails to elaborate on any details. Also, during the descriptions, it has words and phrases highlighted that you can click on for more information; again, these details are usually one or two sentences that fail to elaborate. This program gives you the main ideas, but I'm one of those people that likes to know more than just "when," I want to know how, why and by who - basically, well researched with plenty of food for the brain to inspire intregue into another possible tangent. With this program, you will constantly be accessing other sources because of the limits. If you are considering this for assisstance in school work, don't bother since the information on this program is included in your textbook.

Summary: It does what it says: aptly named, "essential review"
Review: I bought this to help me prepare for quizzes in US history class. It does the job! There's not a lot of fluff, not a lot of cool features (I like the music though!). It's just a really great review tool. The idea generator thing is really neat.
