Let's Review Biology- 2007 Revised Version
The 2007 version is being sold in bookstores now. This version
is jam packed with pertinent information for the regents exam
on The Living Environment. The basic syllabus includes:
o natural phenomena and lab experiments
o similarity and diversity in life forms
o homeostatis
o cell function/structure + chemistry of living organisms
o genetic continuity and organic evolution
o reproduction, dynamic equilibrium
o interdependence of living things
o the human impact on ecosystems
o a comprehensive glossary
o several full regents exams (both Q/A)

The book is written in a very readable form.
There are many pertinent diagrams and charts which explain
the concepts well.i.e. egg--->adult frog development;
circulatory patterns, cleavage and differentiation, chloroplast

It was great! I dont know what the one star guy's talkin about
I am studying this regents biology book over the summer before I start school in a specialized HS and this is great! I came from one of those schools where they don't teach you anything, where the students teach each other. Most people at my school never knew their three times tables yet they graduated. I was on a normal school level, but they still thought i was very smart.

The point of saying all that is that if i had no teachers, i had to teach myself, and I learned absolutely nothing on science that year in [...]! So I got the [...] science test barrons book and passed.

Since I knew people from better schools are going to compete with me now, and that i wont be "smarty pants" anymore, i brought this biology book along with other barrons regents books and studied them.

Now I'm understanding everything, and I am absolutely glad I got this book.

Pretty Good
I basically taught myself Bio (and took the SAT II and got a 800) with this book even before school began. It is pretty helpful but once again I found the older ones more helpful because the tests were harder.

Not that good
Usually when you are looking for a review book, you want one that has a balance of review text and questions.This book is one of the better biology review books out there right now, but there are much better books.In various cases, this book simply states facts rather than elaborating on the actual idea in order for students to learn the material better.For example, read the chapter on biochemistry and you wil see that it doesn't bother to explain bonding in depth, or to the extent as you would in a class.For honors biology students, I would reccomend an SAT 2 book, such as Kaplan, or the "N and N Review Book," which is not for the Living environment curriculum.However, it follows the old regents syllabus, and has a source of amazing questions along with a concise review of facts, solidified with diagrams and key concepts.For Biology, I think that the only Barron's book you would want to buy is the Regents Exams and Answers booklet, which provides the real questions, as most ofyou probably know.Since the book has some review and a few questions, I had to give it 3 / 5 stars. ...
