Excellent for the new Writing Section... so so for others

I bought this book only because it covered the new analytical writing section of the GRE (gave my exam in October 2002). Qt. and Verbal coverage is not good at all specially for the computer adaptive GRE; its too easy in the book. So also is Barrons. They present a false picture of the Qt. and verbal section of the CAT GRE. I got a qt. score of 790 and a verbal score of 620.Back to essays, the book is a great guide and I specially liked the argument chapters. I believe that for writing issue essays there could be no set techniques that one could apply but for the argument you could follow the logic given in the book. And thanks to it I got a 6.0/6.0 on my analytical writing section!!

pretty good

This book was okay for me. This was the only form of study I had, so it may be a limited opinion. Though the vocab. was thought to be too short, i didnt even go through all of it, I suppose if you are diehard this book may not be enough, but for a one or two month book it did enough. They talk to you through the book like a person which was cool.
