The vocabulary lists and tests are categorized by subjects, which include arts terms, science terms, social science terms, foreign words and phrases, and word roots. Two additional chapters concentrate on the hot 300 words test takers need to know when taking the SAT and the GRE, respectively.

The accompanying compact disc concentrates on word pronunciation and offers many examples of contextual word usage.
