I have taken the General Test for the GRE more than once at this point and decided to bolster my application with some subject tests. Psychology is by far the "easiest" of the subject tests to me because of the content (and a minor in psych) but don't be confused -- you're still taking a test that is geared towards making you question yourself and your answers. The GRE is straightforward in the sense that it is actively trying to manipulate your thinking -- some questions seem impossibly easy so you'll second-guess yourself and oftentimes choose the wrong answer because the right one is so "duh" but then other times a simple rewording and misread word causes questions that seem point blank to be something totally different. My best advice: read slowly, study hard, and take your time. You got this.
This is an amazing resource for the GRE Psychology subject matter exam. All the typical sample exam resources you would expect are included here. And indeed, there are many benefits from practicing the exam with true time constraints and then reading through the answer keys.But the thing that really makes this guide shine are the topic review sections. This guide includes a sort of "cliff-notes" of all the key areas that will be covered. In that sense it highlights topics for further research as well as providing a good primer of basic theories and key figures. Memorizing those details is both easy and useful, as it should fill in any gaps that one might have from their own coursework.All these books are printed on a kind of drab paper stock that is readable enough but does not really "pop." So while the content is great, I look forward to the day when these guides are printed on better quality materials. But this is an effective exam preparation guide that will aid in your studies and should help you maximize your scores. In that sense it gets my full recommendation.
Frankly, this book reminded me of how much I had forgotten!This is an excellent study resource, but don't limit its use to the GRE; I'm using it as an adjunct study aid for my state licensing exam. But even when the exam is "water under the bridge" I think I'll find this book an excellent refresher. I really appreciate that it is geared to the DSM-5.Section 1 contains 2 chapters that get the student "psyched" for the exam (yes, pun intended). Section 2 contains a short diagnostic quiz to help the student see just where (s)he is. Section 3 contains eight chapters that review the various areas of psychology that the GRE will test. Section 4 contains two practice exams. And Section 5 provides some additional resources.Bottom line, an absolutely excellent deal at $11.42 ( price at the time of this review). 5 stars!
This is an excellent preparation guide for those graduates or those approaching graduation with a degree in psychology or who have taken upper level undergraduate or graduate courses who are testing for admittance to graduate schools that require a score or recommend one for entrance. Loaded with the sorts of questions the students will find on the test along with the answer keys to help, this is an excellent guide. Highly recommended.
Typical GRE test preparation book, with an emphasis on DSM-5 in particular which is to be expected for a standardized test. Good review for anyone with an interest in psychology in the different theories and names of scientists that are of importance in the field. Would be better if it included digital content or sample tests which apparently you have to pay separately for.
This is designed for college prep in mind but it also works well for those who need a brief refresher for the new DSM. Good general practice exams, easy to follow format and pertinent examples. Kaplan is a top name in testing and with good reason - they take time to make the information accessible yet informative and easily understood without watering it down.
Whether you are currently studying for GRE or a state licensing exam, or just looking for an updated concise review manual, this is great. Containing info from the DSM 5, it will continue to be a good resource for the library for some time to come. Always amazing to see just how much you knew, but forgot you know, it's a great refresher.
As per Kaplan's usual solid standard, the "GRE Subject Test: Psychology" is well organized with clear instructions and practice tests. Each section tackles a topic of study which is fairly detailed. The guide is a supplemental tool but it covers quite a bit. Then at the end, there is another practice test at the end.
