    Duration of ownership: 10 Days

    Strengths: It has good guides to most of the problems.

    Weaknesses:There are not answers and clues to all the problems for the textbooks. It skips some of the most difficult problems. I don't know why. It ask for more money when I really want to get the clue.

    Overall Evaluation: I wish that the all the problems in text books have clues but seems like it's skipping the difficult ones that my daughter need clues in most. It asks for more money in tutoring or graphic tools. Graphic tools are probably reasonable still since it's under $30 annually. But I thought it was little bit pitty to skip the hardest problems to ask for more money.

    Strengths: Many Encarta Updates improve the product.

    Weaknesses:Microsoft constant changes to the user interface makes usage harder than necessary

    Overall Evaluation: Encarta works well enough, but I do not like the installation of the Student interface. I do not like the changes to the Encarta interface and I find it difficult to quickly find the information I want.

The suite's Math Tools, included Encarta Premium encyclopedia, and report help can give any student a useful assist and make learning more fun along the way.

    Duration of ownership: 5 Days

    Strengths: Useful tool for school/college student

    Weaknesses:Navigation is complicated and not very intuitive.

    Overall Evaluation: I bought this for my niece, she is in 9th grade. According to her it is very useful for assignments and homeworks, little hard to get used to the navigation at the beginning. This product is thoughtfully designed for the student althought it comes with entire Encarta encyclopedia. I personally found the search feature is a little tedious (after you get used to Google search) but works. overall it is a good product.
