Rule#1 for preparing for the GRE: Only use official GRE questions written by the GRE test writers. Do not waste your valuable time on substandard questions written by test prep companies.The GRE was revised in the fall of 2011 and so far the only relevant book released by ETS is the The Official Guide to the GRE Revised General Test, 2nd Edition. Other than that the key piece of software is the free Official PowerPrep II software(go to ETS's GRE website) that provides two computer based test.This new guide provides a set of 150 practice questions. The first half of the book has 75 practice questions that are split between the four main topics on the GRE: Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, and Data Analysis. The second set of 75 questions are part of three practice sets. I would recommend doing these tests under timed conditions, 25 questions in 40 minutes. Although, this timing is different from the computer based tests(20 questions in 35 minutes), but the overall correspondence between the two formats is the same. Read page 139 of the book for further details on how the test writers recommend you to use these sets.All in all I highly recommend this book to anyone who is preparing for the revised GRE test. I am in the process of creating the video explanations for all of the 150 questions that will be hosted at www.grequantum.com.
This book is useful for 'practice only' to someone who already understands or has a good hand on arithmetic, geometry, data analysis, and so on. If you haven't applied anything other than basic arithmetic for a long period of time (maybe your previous 'field' or job didn't require extensive math) or are just generally bad with numbers, then the majority of this book is probably going to be confusing for you. The explanations after each question are very cut and dry and not written in a step by step process to teach the reader. Sometimes the answer explanation after a problem makes it seem like the writer pulled a number from thin air to get to the correct answer whereas other study guides explain where that mystery number came from in a more thorough step by step process. Don't get me wrong, the questions are on point to how they appear and are worded on the actual GRE so it is worth looking over but again, it's geared for practice not for learning the actual step by step process to solve math problems.
Bought this with the verbal and official GRE guide from ETS. I thought each were helpful, I read through the official guide, and did a practice test. Worked through the other two work books ( this one and the quant) and then took the second practice test. The books are redundant in that the guide has the same info as the work books, ALTHOUGH there are different practice problems. This was especially helpful since it was from the test makers themselves. I wound up scoring better than I thought I would on the verbal, so the practice was well worth it, since I got a163 on the verbal and a 159 on the quant.
This review book is amazing, since it's made by the test makers of the GRE the questions accurately reflect the questions on the the GRE General Revised Test. Similarly, the test makers explain the scoring of the exam: ranges from 130 to 170 for both the math & verbal, with a score of 1 to 6 for the essay. Anyways, I used this practice book for a GRE prep course in which we used both this book along with the verbal one by ETS along with Barron's 6 GRE Practice Tests. In the course we practiced timing for each of the sections on the test. Similarly, from the ETS website I downloaded the practice test software to get comfortable taking the test online. The books even covers basic math foundation as well as calculus and algrebra review (as well as other topics in math) that some of us may have not used in quite some time. If you are still not confident on the math, I would suggest watching math videos from Khan Academy and re working problems that give you difficulty. The textbook came well within the expected delivery time and as described, as a new book. This is a must for all those taking the GRE, even if you were part of a prep course I would suggest buying both the verbal and quantitative books to time yourself while taking the practice questions. Also, use these books for preparation of your own. Anyways, I can't stress the importance of these books enough for those preparing for the GRE, just buy these books for your preparation.
As a test prep expert @ www.SuccessPrep.com, we use this textbook for homework practice with our students. This GRE book is the best collection of GRE Math relevant questions from the official makers of the test. This is the closest you will get to test day questions. The 3 practice tests really help our students get a feel of what GRE math questions look like.
I'm loving this test prep book so far. I found this to be extremely useful. I haven't taken the new GRE yet. I plan to in a bit. The prep is good because there are a large variety of questions from the actual makers of the exam. I found that the format has changed a lot from the old exam. I took the old exam over 9 years ago. Now, I am trying to 'refresh' my memory on how math standardized exams work. This book is very helpful because it gives me actual questions that were used. It has the right 'difficulty' level for me to train on. The answers come in the back and have some explanation. You can use this as a study aid. I would definitely recommend this book if its the only test prep you plan on getting. I also bought the GRE full prep book from ETS so I can try that after I finish this. I have been slowly working on this for a couple of weeks. It's helping me jog my memory for sure.
