Critic reviews

"Fry's lively style of writing makes the book very useful." ( Library Journal)

GREAT INFORMATION!!!

Great and useful studying tips for anyone wanting to improve their grades or study habits.

great book to help you learn

I like the book . I just wish I was in school to use the knowledge I learned.

Love it!

Extremely useful! I've listened to more than once. Changed my way of studying and learning! This book should be mandatory for all students!!

Confidently expressed pseudoscience

I tried hard to line this book but it was filled with to the brim with pseudoscientific nonsense from start to finish. It encouraged strategies known to undermine learning such as multitasking, massed practice, superficial questioning, learning styles and more. The worst part about it was the astounding confidence in which these falsehoods were touted. While there was an occasional pearl of wisdom here and there (if you throw enough mud some of it sticks), you’re better off saving your time and money and reading a booking that is written by somebody with some knowledge of the learning sciences. This book is worse than a waste of time; it is misleading.
