Book Reviews of Cracking the GRE with DVD, 2009 Edition (Graduate School Test Preparation)
Book Review: A good aid to "cramming" for the GRE
Summary: 5 Stars
I ended up registering for the GRE at the last minute and received this book 4 days before my test date. While I do not recommend waiting until the last minute to begin studying for a test that can make a big difference on grad school applications, I definitely saw results in the short time I had to study. This book contains a DVD, which allows access to practice tests on the Princeton Review website. After taking 3 practice tests my score improved from a 690 quant/550 verbal to a 750 quant/610 verbal. Although the practice tests were certainly helpful in themselves, I would read the sections on the book that described how to do better on whatever sections I struggled on in the practice tests, and I think this is what improved my score the most. The authors have many valuable strategies for outsmarting the test, which save time and greatly increase the chances of guessing the right answer, should that become necessary.
I took the actual GRE today and scored a 790 quant/650 verbal, so the practice tests were definitely a good indicator of what is on the test, although I agree with some reviewers who complained that the math questions on the actual test seem tougher than what this book prepares you for. Again, I heartily recommend taking a decent amount of time to prepare for the GRE, but I certainly noticed a notable benefit from using this product for only 4 days.
