Summary: Right On Target
Comment: Kaplan's GRE prep is right on target. This edition is a transitional version since it covers both the "old" GRE and the "new" GRE. Give yourself plenty of time to prepare with this book. I seriously crammed with only a month of preparation. If you're applying to highly competitive programs, I would advise spending at least 3 - 6 months, especially to enhance your vocabulary and strengthen your arithmetic skills (calculators aren't allowed on the GRE). The CD-ROM provided with the book is excellent, even if some of the lessons are cheesy. I highly recommend going through the entire book, all of the book exercises, the practice test in the book, the CD-ROM lessons, and some of the activities and practice exercises on the CD-ROM. The CD-ROM totally ignores the new GRE, which was pretty frustrating. One thing to note is that the Kaplan exercises and practice tests (both the book and CD) are a bit harder than the actual exam. For practice tests, use the free PowerPrep software that you will receive after you register for the GRE. This CD use the exact same test software that the real GRE uses, including all of the instructions. The CD also provides you with a few sample essay topics, along with actual essays submitted by test takers, the scores of each essay, and graders' comments on the submitted essays. You'll get to see what a 6 essay is like, compared to a 5 or 2.

Summary: GRE for the Elementary School Child
Comment: There were a few good study tips, but overall this book is lacking. It was written for the person with an eighth grade education taking the GRE. The software was written for an Elementary child. I do not need to be applauded when I get an answer correct, nor do I need cute animation to keep me motivated. On top of this, many of the features of the software did not work. This book is guaranteed to increase your score, but I feel it is guaranteed to lower your IQ (just my opinion). Stick with ETS study material.

Summary: designed for toddlers
Comment: I purchased this because it comes with the cd. Well, before putting it in your drive, turn OFF the volume. It is stupidly animated with music and cartoons. Come one, we are people preapring for GRADUATE SCHOOL! We do not need animated cartoons to make studying "FUN" I have the Barrons' book and the kaplan verbal worbook. Honestly, but Barron's or another book with CD, but not this one - unless you're a 10 year old preparing to enter a PHD program -
