Title: Gre Exam Verbal Workbook (Kaplan GRE Exam Verbal Workbook) by Amy Rosenstein, David Stuart, Stanley H. Kaplan Educational Center, Kaplan Educational Centers ISBN: 0-684-86895-4 Publisher: Kaplan Pub. Date: 01 November, 1999 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.22 (9 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Solid Preparation - It can be amusing too...)))
Comment: Two Important Points:
1. Vocabulary... Nightmares of GRE takers, especially if English is not your native language... And even if it is...:-)
O.k., this book is indeed much better than, say, Barron's Verbal section in this way:
the authors use an innovative approach to the crucial but often neglected because the time lacks,- part of GRE Verbal - vocabulary lists. Even though you decide not to buy this one, apply this tactic: design your own WORD CATEGORIES - and you WILL NOT forget those words.
List words you don't know on a sheet of paper in two colomns, each having a meaning opposite to another (HESITATE : ACT QUICKLY, for exemple. Hesitate: Dither, Falter, Waver, Luggard...; Act Quickly:Apace,Impetuous, Precipitate etc..).
More possible groupings:
RUDENESS : POLITENESS
SMART: STUPID
WAR: PEACE
MAN MADE : NATURE MADE
.....
Working so will make ANTONYMS section of the GRE a piece of cake, and, for sure, will boost your ANALOGIES score.(cause what do you think you were doing, making up your word groups? Preparing indirectly for exactly those GRE sections:-)
This book presents the vocab in exactly this manner. The only disadvantage is that they give a limited number of words. As for me, I had to complete the categories they suggested with words taken from "Barron's: How to Prepare For the GRE" 3,500 word list.
2. As for helpful techniques for specific GRE VERBAl sections, the book is fraught with very efficient hints. I Highly recommend it, really.
Good luck on the test!

Summary: Success!
Comment: I myself am not one who tests well. I am the person who chokes from test anxiety. I was applying to grad school as an English Major, knowing that the most important score for me, on the GRE, was the verbal score. Conscious of my test-taking history, I purchased the book in an attempt to subdue apprehension and buttress my confidence. Having taken the test, and scoring 200 points higher than I had expected, I would advise anyone who relates to test anxiety to sacrifice the money and buy the book. Follow the advice it gives and it will prove to be your advocate.
