Customer Feedback - 2003
Language Arts Bundle for College Prep |
 |
 |
"I use it all the time. It seems like my students are more likely to get
it from comments from the software than from my grading their essays,"
says a teacher at Palm Desert High School in Palm Desert, CA, about Merit
Software's Language Arts Bundle for College Prep.
This select group of programs covers reading comprehension and writing
competencies vital for college work. The Language Arts Bundle, which bridges
high school with college-level learning, is also useful for SAT, ACT and
TOEFL preparation. Texts and graphics are designed to appeal to older
students.
