Pearson sent me a review copy of the Geometry Common Core e-book for the purpose of this review Math has never been my subject. I tried my hardest, but it never came easy to me. I always went to see the teacher for extra help before and after school, but could never muster much more than a C. I'm pretty sure that C was a gift as well.
Even though I went for the extra help, there were some things that I just couldn't grasp and was too embarrassed to ask the teacher to go over them for a third, fourth and even a fifth time. Each chapter has videos that explain the process of solving the math problems that are being covered in class. I'm also a big fan of the easy to find and use definitions of all of the terms. I'm also a fan of the updated feel of the textbook. I really liked the practice questions and quizzes in the book. If I was an individual student with my own iPad, $14.99 is a great price to help me understand Math. The book is huge. 2.3 Gigs is a ton of space on my iPad.
