This is an excellent addition to the arsenal of any student preparing for the GRE! I recommend this book, but I would encourage the readers to consider the other resources available, including the ETS Official Study Guide (available through ). I had both of these books side-by-side for this review and my best recommendation is to use BOTH to prepare. The software with this GRE for Dummies book contains a whopping 5 practice exams, compared to the ETS Official Guide's measly two exams. Why not go with both and have 7 practice exams on which to cut your teeth and hone your skills? The key is to remember that no one book or practice exam will prepare you for this exam. Use the recommendations in this and other books, study the exam and the scoring, and practice, practice, practice in as realistic an environment as you can create. This book will help if you really USE IT!The GRE for Dummies book is broken into 6 parts:- Mastering the Test Taking Experience (note: basic test skills and tips - sleep, eat, practice, relax, etc...)- Tacking the Verbal Section One Word at a Time- High School Math and Beyond: Math You Thought You'd Never Need Again- Penning Powerful Analytical Essays- Taking Full-Length Practice GREs: It's All You (note: this is a good section on how to drill yourself in practice - some real nuggets here)- The Part of Tens (ten key facts about the GRE, ten mistakes you won't make, and ten ways to warm up and relax during the GRE).Also, the CD-ROM which accompanies the book is excellent. I found the flashcards for vocabulary and the practice questions especially nice and easy to use.
