Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent supplement to GRE study
This was a great product, but I think students for the GRE need to recognize what it is for. It is meant for students who need extra review and practice on problems, more than what the comprehensive test books cover.

It does go into extensive detail about math you use on the exam. The first half covers the kinds of math (arithmetic, algebra, and geometry) and reviews those things we learned in high school, but may have forgotten. The second half covers the question types (comparison, ... Read More

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Good for practice questions but hopeless for actually learning techniques
This book is fine for providing practice questions but hopeless for teaching techniques on how to answer questions.

For example, this is the entire explanation it provides for how to multiply fractions:

10/9 x 3/4 x 8/15

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Book
This one is just, excellent, may I say GRE maths for dummies!!!, having trouble with quantitative section...this is for you

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Underrated
I strongly feel that some of the reviews of this book posted here are too harsh.Judging from a few of the comments, it seems that some might expect this to prepare them for the GRE Math Subject Test - which is very different from this book's intention, which is to prepare one for the math section of the General Test.The level of difficulty of the problems is not too hard - if you're looking to score a 800, this may not be the book for you - but it's perfect for those of us struggling to get over the 650 ...
