£2.74 new and used,....there's a reason

The key to the book is in the title, 'Know what to expect...'. And that's about all you're gonna get! The tests are usually less than 5 minutes and some aren't even timed and some just say, 'do it as quick as you can'. As soon as you've finished a test, you find that the section on that particular topic is over and there's no room to really get in the swing of doing a 'test' as such.
I found the questions really easy and a little bit insulting at times especially when I timed myself for a 3minute test and finished in a minute. What I also found a bit inconsistent was the longer test which lasted for 14mins (the only long test in the book) this was a 'combination test' and though I could handle the 2-5mins tests very easily, this one was quite tough. When I finished it I realised how much I need to improve but...surprise, surprise... no more long tests of that kind!!
Though I was quite disappointed in the content, SOME of it was of use and I wouldn't complain that much if the book was free.
In short. The book is fine if you want an overview of psychometric test and some examples of '...what to expect...' but the bit about 'Passing Psychometic Testing' must be in a different volume because this book on its own isn't going help you.
