Editorial Review: Product Description: If It’s on the GRE, It’s in This Book The Princeton Review realizes that acing the GRE is very different from getting straight A’s in school. We don’t try to teach you everything there is to know about mathematics and essay writing–only the techniques you’ll need to score higher on the exam. There’s a big difference. In Cracking the GRE, we’ll teach you how to think like the test writers and -Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool you -Raise your score by mastering the vocabulary words found most often on the GRE -Use Process of Elimination, Ballparking, and Aggressive Guessing to ace the exam -Master even the toughest sections: Analogies, Antonyms, Equations, and the Essay section -Practice taking the GRE in an online testing environment with instant scoring analysis This book gives you 120 practice test questions covering each section of the exam. All of our practice questions are like the ones you’ll see on the actual GRE, and we fully explain every solution. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - don't even botherok... don't even bother studying for GRE's. waste of time. really. when you register to take the test, they send you a cd with sample test. look at that to get an idea of the format and type of questions. that is good enough. don't even bother studying the vocabulary either. hardly any of the words will appear and you will forget all of them by the test day anyways and none of them will be remembered later on in life. Also, the words they ask in the exam- noone even uses! so it's not even a useful ... Read More Rating:  - GRE is GreeeaatI love this book, It is the answer to my prays. It presents the material in a way that is very easy to understanding. It gives an example of a problem and then shows the steps to solve the problem. Rating: - GRE PrepThis book is very informative on how the test is going to be set up, tips on how to prepare with many different types of practice exams, and it also gives you 2 types of studying plans that breaks down things you should accomplish and study each week. Rating: - Cracking the GRE Chemistry test--2nd editionDon't buy this book! I have the 2nd edition (the edition prior to the 2005), and it is full of obvious errors, in both the study section and the answer key! If you use this as your study aid, you will learn to do things incorrectly. The Princeton Review needs to proofread their study guides before publishing them. This study guide is a disservice to chemistry applicants everywhere. Rating:  - great to learn the strategiesI am not a native speaker and started to study with Barrons and was overwhelmed by the 5000 word-list and the huge amount of information they are trying to get across. The Princeton Review helped me to get the strategies to use on the GRE. It is probably true that the practice examples (even the hard ones) are a bit too easy. After working with the Princeton Review I therefore returned to Barrons to practice. A combination of both seems to be a good strategy.
