very helpful July 30, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This has been a very helpful study tool. It is easy to follow and easy to understand and the CD ROM really enhances the learning experience.

This book had everything I wanted to help me study for the GRE. I enjoyed the helpful hints and tricks to mastering each section, and there are more than enough practice tests available to help me prepare.
Unuseful October 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this book to get an overview on the GRE (which I could have got on ETS page) and to increase my Verbal and AW scores.
After three week of learning words, the Verbal scores didn't improve and the AW skill is simply unmeasurable.
Their verbal CD tests are pretty limited, after making them twice I get maximum score because of learning the answers by heart, not because any improvement actually occurs. The Math was no challenge except the probabilities, whose I had to review once again. Sadly, no probabilities problems occurred in the test, but statistics (distributions, percentile, standard deviation), which I had barely remembered (I have a 10 year old CS/Math undergraduate degree).
I scored 800 Quantitative (with very less preparation) 480 on Verbal and 3.5 on AW. Same score, (at least after my appreciation, I had the official test only once) as when I have acquired the book.
The book may be good to give an image about what GRE is, this is the reason I gave two stars, but if you wish to improve your score, you may look elsewhere.
CD doesn't work with Vista or Mac November 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have used Kaplan study products for many different exams, and I like their approach and the fact that they have a CD-ROM with extra features. But it doesn't work with either my PC (which has Vista) or my Mac laptop!! This seems ridiculous for a 2009 version. I am very sorry I paid the extra money for the CD-ROM.
