Product Description
The GRE subject tests are among the most difficult standardized exams. Rather than testing general problem-solving skills, they require highly specialized knowledge.
The experts at The Princeton Review have thoroughly research each subject test to provide students with the most thorough, up-to-date information available. Students don’t need to relearn the entire histories of their fields—just what they need to know to earn high scores on the exams.
Each guide includes one full-length practice exam, complete with comprehensive explanations for every solution.

 Useless November 7, 2009

This book is overly simplified and does not prepare test-takers effectively for the exam. It only includes one sample test, which is not nearly enough. The chapter on Special Topics lacks any review exercises and does not accurately reflect the level of difficulty of the exam.

I don't know about the content of this book, but I'd buy it just to get a closer look at the hot tutor on the cover.

I haven't taken the GRE math test yet, so I can't personally evaluate how well the book covers the exam material, but I hear from others that it does a solid job.
The book is well-organized and easy to read. There are sample questions after every major topic, and a review section at the end of every chapter. Major and minor concepts are reviewed, although many of the more subtle aspects are raised during the sample problems. Concepts and theorems are reviewed without excess wordiness -- its not a textbook, you'll get the most out of it if you have already been exposed to the material.

The problem that i personaly have with this book is that even though each chapter gives you a review of main topics it does not prepair you enough for solving review questions at the end of the chapter. Read chapter 3(Calculus ii), for example, and try to solve the review questions--almost impossible. It would be much more useful if they would give some hints and technics how to sole those problems before you get to them--not after.
I think it is good for the test preparation May 8, 2008

As a GRE subject test textbook, it is detailed and well organized. I like the examples and practices most. Few mistakes were made in the book. It would be better if more practice tests were proposed.
