1 out of 5 stars NEW? This software crashed my system!   July 12, 2001
Angry Customer (California, USA)

First, what's so deluxe about it? A flimsy...map with marketing [stuff] written all over it?

Second, the software crashed my system. The system fonts used are [bad], and the test questions are barely legible on my screen.

Third, the "pss" personal scoring system is a joke. It's a silly little animation, nothing more.

Fourth, I can't pause my tests and come back (I discovered this when the program crashed my system and I had to keep starting over).

Fifth, the animations are silly, and the lessons are patronizing.

Sixth, I couldn't find good information about how to improve my score with this software; it wasn't obvious.

I'm going to get the Kaplan product instead; when I've used my friend's copy, it really helped and showed me how to improve my score, helped me do research on schools, find ways to pay for schools & stuff.

Don't buy this product unless you have a couple hours to kill uninstalling it!


1 out of 5 stars Princeton Review - Inside the SAT/ACT 2002 Deluxe Software   September 14, 2001

The Princeton Review "Inside the the SAT & ACT 2002 Deluxe" CD software damaged my computer's operating system (Windows 95) and required more than 6 hrs of repair time by a highly qualified PC technician. A complete re-imaging of my hard drive was required to restore full operation. This is the worst software I have ever encountered. Technical support from the manufacturer -The Learning Company was completely lacking and I never received a reply to a long distance toll call I made at my expense to their support center.

The Princeton Review is the ultimate in studying for the ACT/SAT. These people know both tests inside and out and have developed a straightforward approach to studying. I have used both the book and software versions of the Princeton Review and I suggest that anyone looking to better their scores should invest in this worthwhile product.

The SAT CD works but the ACT program will not load if you are using Windows 2000.

the time I spent on the phone trying to get through to "technical" support for this product wasn't worth the toll call to get there. I ended up throwing it away.
