Compared to what goes on in American public schools–most kids will be challenged by this collection. The critical thinking portion is the weakest; mainifesting itself as cleverly disguised puzzles–good luck adults. Overall drill is less boring than most products in this category.

We bought the Elementary Advantage 2007 – cannot even load it- we agree w/ the above. Amazon shouldn’t even attempt to sell this product.

This product is fun even for me as an adult. The kids love it and like learning all the new things the CD has to offer.

Gee, I’ve used the Elementary and Middle School Advantage to suppliment the “Play and Learn” books for home schooling and found it acceptable. The programs can be difficult to load on newer machines but that is not our issue. Compared with what is being taught in public schools in our area, it is nice to have the opportunity to teach/learn Spanish, typing and do spelling in a game form. There are definetly things that could be improved on but as a suppliment its acceptable and usable. I particularly found the Middle School Advantage Reading disc full of books a great asset. The elementary spelling disc could use revamping by having grade graduated lists, common mis-spelled words and words grouped together with common sounds, spellings or letter characteristics. I recommend purchasing the set at the used price of under $10. and use it as a interactive suppliment.

My best advice is to save your money and do more research on other products. The fancy box is misleading as the software is terribly outdated.
