 The best on TOEFL essays, 2004-03-08
This book explains how to write the essay on the TOEFL through examples and analyses; the best of its kind.
 Doesn't contain newest TOEFL topics, 2002-05-28
First, you need to know that TOEFL publishes its official list of TOEFL essay topics on its website, and ALL essays that you will have to write on the TOEFL come from this list. Second, you need to know that this list is updated every year, with some topics removed and new ones added. The next update will occur around Aug of 2002.After this book was published, TOEFL updated its topics so that there were 185 topics, not ~150 when this book was published. Many of the old topics were retired, and many new ones took their place, so many of the essays in this book will NEVER appear on the TOEFL again. If you don't mind that, this book will give you excellent advice on how to write your TOEFL essay and will show you how to get a 5.0 or a 6.0, which will help you to raise your score. Remember, the TOEFL essay is worth the same as the grammar section (each is worth 1/6 of your total score).
Very good for grammer review, 2002-04-19
Hey friends, this is for test preparation, not for English language learning; otherwise, it will call "English" not "TOEFL". Its grammer review sections are very good. It absolutely worth a buy.

Want a 6.0 on your essay on the TOEFL-CBT?, 2002-02-12
I leafed through this book to give me some idea on how to prepare for my TOEFL-CBT essay writing section and was pleased with my full score of 6.0! This helpful book that comes with 150 short sample essays, teaches you the rudimentaries of essay writing and development from the basic levels of English composition and grammar. Different charts and disgrams are displayed on how to develop your ideas you've brainstormed for the essay. Time is not on the side on the test-taker and it would do you well to be prepared in one way or another. This recommended guide will prove useful for both English and non-English test-takers. For the former, it might look too easy for those confident in the usage of the Englih language and would merely be a revision of what is being taught in schools. For the latter, a little more patience, time and a lot of English essay writing practice are needed. Begin with this inexpensive guide book. It might do you some good. I would suggest that the author and publisher come up with more challenging topics and essays though, and have the next edition of book printed on quality paper that can last a millenium.
