Math Blast July 5, 2005 Leah Schatzki 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I think overall, the book, Algebra Structure and method is wonderful. The book provides the odd answers to the problems, in the back, which is nice, because it gives me sense of if I'm getting the problems correct, without telling me all the answers. I also like how the difficulty of problems is catagorized, with "a" problems being the easiest, "b"problems, in the middle and "c" problems the hardest. Sometimes the explanations of how to do the problem are a little confusing,though. All in all, this book is a good teacher.

I found this book easy to use. The only time I had trouble in Algebra was when we were getting into factoring and our teacher decided to go outside the book >.< But other then that it is easy to understand and it explains very well.
This book is still out there and still looks the same! November 24, 2004 Adam (Pittsburgh, PA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I was searching for a good textbook to learn Latin and for some reason this book popped up since somebody had purchased it with the Latin text I was considering. I used Algebra Structure and Method Book 1 as a student in 1991 and 1992 in my high school Algebra 1 class. This was a very good textbook and I had previously hated mathematics. My school also used the second book in this series as well as the Geometry book that goes with it. I learned math and did well at it. I think this series would benefit any high school math student still today in spite of the fact that the cover has not changed in almost 14 years.
Not very great October 21, 2004 5 out of 9 found this review helpful
I have always been a great student in math. Yet, when I got this book I couldn't understand any of it. They don't show how to do the problems step-by-step. If I missed one day of school, I'd be lost and up to midnight trying to figure out the lesson. Overall, this book just confused me. It's very well organized, and shows some examples. Yet, the examples don't quite help you wiht the problem you're having a hard time with.
Hard to Understand October 29, 2003 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
When I recieved this book from my school, I thought it would explain everything step by step. But to my conclusion, I barely understood it. When the textbook does'nt explain things good, how is the student supposed to understand it? I do not reccomend this book. But I do recccomend Algebra 1 Concepts and Skills.
