GRE Prep by Magoosh

I can't say enough good things about this book. This was my first attempt at the GRE. I needed to make a 280 for my grad school program and passed with a score of 284 for quantitative reasoning and verbal reasoning combined. My school doesn't use the writing score, but I received a 2.5. The book was the only thing I used to study for the GRE. I studied for less than month, a few days a week for 3+ hours per study session. I'm 46 and had not had math in years and this book really helped refresh what I vaguely remembered and helped me learn what I didn't know, fairly easily. The explanations and examples were clear and concise. The exercises helped me test what I learned along the way. I also took advantage of Magoosh's free apps to test what I was learning, as well. I mainly studied the math portion and not much of the vocabulary or writing as I was confident in those areas. If you are needing a great study tool to get ready for the GRE and you are on the fence about this book, I would suggest that you purchase this book and see for yourself how great it is. If you study with this book and are fresh out of school, you will do much better than I did, so don't let my score be a reflection of the book or how well you will do. I didn't study as much as I could have, but I did get the score I needed. Good luck on your graduate school journey. I love graduate school. I'm studying clinical mental health counseling. I finished my first semester with 3 As and 1 B = 3.75 GPA

Arrived before schedule time. Book is light weight

Very good for GRE preparation! Sadly the book itself is rubbish, with several pages not glued in and just falling out.

Not a lot of questions as one would expect, but they definitely have the best strategies out there especially for the quant part

Good for starters
