Not as advertised on packagingSep 06, 2007
By SW Buyer
"Kay"
I purchased this product becaused it advertised on the box that it had 'self-paced lessons' - 'the best tutorials' - 'a visual journey' among other wonderful marketing terms. When I installed it, I thougt a disk was missing - all I found were practice sessions of sets of 10 questions that tell you if you guessed right or wrong, with an explaination of the correct answer.
My email to them:I purchased middle school success because the package advertises - self-paced tutorials - key concepts to work with -tutorials and activities - self paced lessons - and visual tours. My box contains 4 disks. Am I missing something??? Where do I find the lessons, tutorials etc for Math, Science, English etc ???? Their email to me: Solution:
The Middle School Success disc has practice sessions. Those practice sessions look like tests but every answer is explained (sometimes with visual aids).

A Deffinite Waste of MoneyOct 22, 2007
By Oumaima S. Yassen Not even worth one star, there are no "lessons" as advertised. Just random questions for each subject that you can only hope are being taught in a middle school class. It's a little like taking tests without ever being taught the subject.
The worst software buy, please save your money and look elsewhere for educational software.~

What a big waste of money and false advertising on the box.Jan 01, 2008
By Aaron J. Hoock This software proved to be worthless. There are no lessons as mentioned on the box. It is nothing but 10 question quizzes. Giving it 1 star is generous. More time went into creating the lies on the box than into the software. Can not believe they have "#1 best selling educational suite" on the box.

Beyond HorribleDec 29, 2008
By Wayne E. Wright Zero stars if possible. I concur with the other reviewers. I've been in education for over 20 years, and have taught university courses on educational technology. This product is beyond horrible. It's just a collection of multiple choice quiz items. Even the interface to select those is stupid.
Basic pedagogy dictates that first you teach students something, and then you assess them to see if they learned it. This skips the teaching part all together. The loud buzzer for incorrect answers announces to all within earshot that the student is dumb, and just adds injury to insult.
The claims on the box about "lessons" and "tutorials" are a complete lie. I'd sue for false advertising to get my $10 bucks I paid at second-hand bookstore, but why bother.
Run, don't walk, away from this horrible, horrible, program.
