Slow Shipping August 18, 2009 Anna D. Huff 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The item is great! I love the book. It helped me a lot. The only thing is that the shipment took 2 weeks. I was hoping to get it sooner.
GRE Verbal May 7, 2009 Melissa A. Bowers The practice tests and helpful hints throughout the book have really helped me a lot.
Deja Vu. I have answered these questions before January 4, 2009 Geraldo (Colorado) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased the Kaplan Premier 2009 book. Currently I am reviewing the verbal portion of the GRE. I picked up this Kaplan Verbal Workbook because I want a stellar score. I am finding that many, if not most of the questions in this verbal workbook are questions I have seen before in the premier quide.
Kaplan, I am grant you one star for your indolence. Hopefully when I take the full GRE practice tests, all of the questions will be fresh.
An additional criticism of the Kaplan Premier 2009 book is their predilection towards Windows. There are technologies that are OS independent, ie. HTML/Java/Flash. Your programming foundation excludes Mac and Linux users. I am able to use the CD, as I own a Windows box and use Parallels on my MacBook Pro.
Not sure if I will give the Quantitative review a look or not. I may have to physically review the quantitative book in a store to see if there were as lazy as I have noticed in this book.
Not so great November 10, 2007 WaterBaby (Florida) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I went through and I read the whole book, took all the practice tests, and even learned all of the words. Come test day none of the words were even on my GRE and I had been so worried about following the book that I think I may have done better without it. The book was good in improving my vocabulary, however, don't expect it to help you out a whole lot.
Not a good test prep October 20, 2007 Sba Kee 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I used this book diligently over the course of a month to prepare for the verbal section of the GRE, but found that I was totally unprepared for taking the test. I do not recommend purchasing it for preparation. Instead look to the Princeton review. It's also a little cheaper for poor college students.
