Review:

" The online practice tests and the ability to search colleges and scholarship information in one easily accessible area make TERC a valuable resource. The content (excluding online practice tests) is worth more than $2000. By providing online and remote access to users, libraries can guarantee that their patrons are using the most up-to-date tests and books available to obtain educational goals. TERC can provide students with the information they need to make intelligent decisions about their future."
