Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Only useful prep I can find
When I was looking for books with tests to practice for Chemistry GRE, I was really disappointed at the lack of selection. Many people recommended getting the original tests to practice on, but how do I get them? The chemistry field hasn't changed very much in the past few decades, so the last book ETS put out was in 1996 and that cost 121.50 on Amazon!!! This REA Test prep book is the next best thing.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - REA's 2000 Edition is up to date and very helpful
There are 5 comprehensive exams, each of which reflects todays GRE exams: 30% Organic, 30% Physical, 25% Inorganic and 15% Analytical. The 2000 version of REA's Chemistry GRE preparation booklet is an excellent review of both format and actual content of the Chemistry GRE.
