""This book has been formatted and written in a very easy to read format but very informative at the same time. I enjoyed especially the real life example of Lupe choosing foreign language classes. He laid out how to proceed steps by steps how to choose and make decisions. Then the author went into in-depths psychology and explain each concept thoroughly and in a very easy to understand format. The part I really like about this book is about evaluating the information sources. When you have to figure out something, you want to evaluate your sources of information. He listed Authors -credential, objective, funding. I found that just by evaluating those three, you could generally get to a very good sources of information."" -Karen S."
