- Great flash cards - save time
The cards are great and will save you a lot of time since you don't have to make any yourself.I have not taken the exam yet butmy overall opinion of the product is positive.They are business card size and slightly thinner than a business card but this makes them very transportable.

- Great Idea Poorly Executed
Vocabulary flash cards for the GRE are a great idea.The 500 words given from Kaplan are fine.Unlike previous reviewers, I find the definitions to be sufficient.They're short and could definitely be more involved, but they're sufficient.
I was most disappointed with the presentation and actual execution of the idea.The flash cards themselves are very small, about the size of a "Chance" or "Community Chest" card in the classic monopoly game.The writing is even smaller, and after ... Read More

Embarrassing quality from Kaplan. The words they have chosen may be appropriate and certainly seem like "GRE Words", however, the word choice, sentence examples, and even the definitions are terrible. Did they even have an English instructor take a look at them?
The example sentences often use an obscure or not-intuitive usage of the vocab word. For example, "inimical":
"Even though a cease-fire had been in place for months, the two sides were still inimical to each other." ... Read More
Rating: - If you use them your vocabulary will grow
This product has helped my vocabulary expand. You do need to use them to see the difference. I have not taken the GRE yet, but I do know I will be going into the test with a more developed vocabulary.
