 Rating:  - Princeton Review's the only way to go for testingI used the Princeton Review for my AP History and AP English tests in high school, when my history teacher highly recommended it. I got a 5 (out of 5) on the History test, and a 4 on the English test, which was a really big accomplishment considering the teacher was incompetent, so the only things I really learned for the test was from the Princeton Review study book. I haven't taken my GRE yet, but the PR GRE book appears to be at the same high standards of the previous two I've used. Excellent ... Read More Rating:  - Useful only for low performersThe math review is somewhat rudimentary, especially considering that the new GRE math questions have become more difficult, but the divisibility properties were very useful and you can't find them in most other books.

My only complaint was that there was a section for new sentence completion questions- those questions are not yet on the test so I wish I had not spent the time studying for them. They DID show up on the experimental ... Read More Rating:  - RIPOFFBuy this if you want to throw away money. I bought this purely for the CAT test online offering. Apparently, Princeton Review are not honoring their claim of 4 full length practice tests or other online tools. Entering the text serial number @ [...] /cracking (per instruction) produces a "Cannot Display Page" error. Entering the ISBN (alternatively) produces a No Offer Found page from PR. Emailing tech support produces a bounced email response. I've tried IE, Mozilla, ... Read More Rating: - Cracking the GRE -- 2011 EditionIn this review, I am writing to prospect customers who have either scored poorly in previous attempts of taking the GRE or customers who are about to take the exam for the first time. In my opinion, "Cracking the GRE, 2011 Edition," is money well spent and for the following reasons: (1) the outline of instructions in the book, DVD, and Online are well organized and consistent as a whole to motivate and encourage students to focus and perform well; (2) the "behind the scenes" philosophy for which ...
