- Best of the Bunch
I used this, along with the Barron's book and the Kaplan GRE vocabulary flash cards. Of the three, this was most essential to my test prep. Although I feel both the Barron's and Princeton Review books had helpful ways to approach the test, what set the Princeton Review book apart was its computer-adjusted practice tests. These were essential to getting a feel for the test - acing the GRE is as much about how to take the test as it is about knowing the answers.

Rating: - Excellent book, can be used alone, but I recommend using it with another book.
This was a great book! I have to say its only real weak point is that it offers less in terms of test-taking strategy, but does a superior job giving you the actual knowledge you need to answer the questions.The math section of this book was extremely in-depth and I only used worksheets I found online as a means of getting extra practice. The verbal section was so-so, but the vocab list was great. I made flashcards with all the words I didn't know from the book's lists and I ended up dramatically expanding ... Read More
Rating: - A Very Good Guide (and online resource)!
Yesss! I got a very good score on the GRE! Like many others, I used more than one method to prepare (Kaplan, Princeton Review, ETS.) Each of them, of course, has positives and negatives about them. But if I have to pick one that is the MOST responsible for my once-thought-to-be-unachievable-by-me score, it is the Princeton Review w/DVD.
Here is the thing. Much of this book's helpfulness is owed to the online access to Princeton Review's GRE website. There, you will find some very good and own to ... Read More

- Should be used in conjunction with other prep books as it has shortcomings
Having just sat for the GRE today and obtained a satisfying score, I decided to review all the GRE prep books I used. Firstly, I have been out of college for 13 years and hated Math [I was an English major]and so I was quite apprehensive in preparing for the GRE. Three books helped me get through the GRE - Barron's, Kaplan's and the Princeton Review, in that order.
In short, I found Barron's to be the most useful in terms of preparing for the verbal and quantitative component, Kaplan's for the quantitative ... Read More
Rating: - Thank God for the Princeton Review
I purchased two books to help me study for the GRE. I bought the Princeton Review because the reviews I read said that it had a good section on how to write the essay. Thank goodness for that review, I used the Princeton Review twice as much as Barron's (worthless). Not only is the essay section good, but the math section is great for anyone (me! me! me!) who has not taken math for a while and is math phobic. I would not have survived the math sections (I got two, due to the testing of new questions, lucky me). Thank you ... Read More
