Summary: Oh Spare Me
Comment: Let me guess.. The publishers of "The Complete Idiot's Guide To [ Insert Catalog Title Here]" needed to fill yet another hole in their catalog.
Has anyone actually read this book? It sure as hell wasn't written from the point of view of a recent college graduate. Duh!
How could this author, who is clearly quite removed from the college experience offer anything of substance. Lets take a look at our author's catalog of works:
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying and Selling Collectibles
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Making Money in Freelancing
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Interfaith Relationships
The Literate Executive
Monarch Notes: J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye
How is it that this author, who has written nearly 76 books, is an expert on just about every subject imagineable. I smell a rat! This isn't an author, this is a factory. Folks, don't be fooled into purchasing a book by an author whose next subject could easily be "The Complete Idiot's Guide To Writing The Complete Idiot's Guide".
Use your hard earned money wisely, and purchase one of these books:
Confessions of a College Freshman: A Survival Guide for Dorm Life, Biology Lab, the Cafeteria, and Other First-Year Adventures
(ISBN: 1589196600) (Written from a real college experience.)
Been There, Should've Done That II : More Tips for Making the Most of College (ISBN: 0965608611 ) (This is a very well written book.)
College 101 : The Book Your College Does Not Want You To Read
(ISBN: 0966412206) (The most brutally honest of all college books. Banned in some campus bookstores for beeing too honest!)
Rating: 2
Summary: Not Worth The Money
Comment: I felt like I could have figured out for myself the things the book covered. Of course, if convenience is your main reason for wanting the book, it does have some useful info. I didn't like some of the unnecessary things they included in an attempt to make sure diversity was appreciated. It was distracting and rather annoying.

Summary: College Survival
Comment: My daughter, who will be entering college, received a copy of this book as a gift. I was flipping through and realized that there is plenty of practical advice here for parents to learn too. Dr. Rozakis knows her stuff and shares it all.
I've recommended this book to the parents of my daughter's friends, as well as to my brothers, even though their kids have a few years to go before college.
