This book goes that extra mile that I needed. I used this book as a supplement to a Princeton Review GRE prep and found it at times better than the text book from my course. This book uses the words in context which is helpful in memorizing.

This test prep book is designed to help build up one's vocabulary in preparation for the GRE. The math on the GRE is of the same level as the SATs, but, as the book explains, the creators of the GRE figure you should have been working on your vocabulary during your undergraduate years.

The book offers several helpful tools for learning new words, and picks a list of words that are most often employed on the test. This is much better than studying a dictionary. It also provides sentences to give examples of how the words are used, etc.

This is a great book, and has been very helpful for me.
