Well, of all the brands of books I chose for the GRE this one ended up being pretty helpful. The concept review in this volume was not sufficient enough for someone out of high school for 1o years, but I augmented it with the Math and Verbal workbooks who went into the actual formulas and vocabulary. But this book helped teach me how to "take the test."

The CD-ROM that came with the book was incredibly helpful. The interface was the same as the real CAT and the questions seemed harder because I scored higher on the actual test than any of their tests. Much better than the other way around.

Although this might not be the same experience for everyone, I had to rate this one highly due to results.

A gripping read. Truly scintillating (GRE word!) stuff....not!

In all seriousness, I would suggest using this for anyone who doesn't have time to take a course on the GRE. The tips were very helpful and the practice tests give users a more or less true to form idea of what the exam will be like.

i mean, how fun is studying for the GRE? but at least the book was very easy to follow, comprehensive, and helpful. I did not always like the way it was set up, with less explanation than I wanted for many of the answers. We'll see how I do on the test, and then I can decide how good the book was.

I "liked" this book as much as anyone could like a book full of math problems and word definitions. the problem i had with this book was that it assumes you know a lot of the information already and takes more time on the complex problems.
So if you struggle with math like I do it is best that you use another suplimental book to brush up on befre takeing on some of these equasions.

I like Princeton Review much better, and the material directly from ETS is probably the most helpful. This has more practice tests than PR, but PR covers more basic math, which I desperately need to review.

The disk wasn't Mac friendly and none of my windows machines would run it either. They are new machines... The info was good but I had to get the newer edition once I realized the test had been changed.

If are going to take the GRE (or just want to brush up on your verbal and math skills...ha ha), this book is great. The practice tests are really helpful.

I answered the items of this book to internalize the words that had learned in 601.
