I've never been strong at math, so I attempted to combine several resources to give me a comprehensive review for the quantitative portion.I used Magoosh (Website with video lessons), this edition of GRE for dummies, and GRE Princeton review (2015 ed) and I would rank them in terms of math help asMagoosh > GRE for dummies > GRE princeton review.Why? Well, in terms of math, Magoosh was just hands down the most comprehensive. In fact, I figured it might be too comprehensive for my taste, because I only had two weeks to prepare. It takes a lot of time to learn the material from Magoosh because the instructor starts from ground zero. The GRE for dummies also starts from ground zero, but quickly picks up the pace and there are a lot of shortcuts involved, without explaining why, which is NOT a bad thing. Compared to Magoosh, this was very brisk, and I assume those who pay for Magoosh's service want that perfect 340 score. With that said, I found that the GRE for dummies covered more quantitative information than the GRE princeton edition, especially in the geometry section and breaking down word problems (Which some parts did not even appear in the 2015 Princeton edition).The verbal section was quite comprehensive as well, and has given me the tools to feel confident during the verbal portion of the exam. However, I must say that some of the vocabulary (400+ in this edition) are just downright unhelpful due to confusing. Some examples include:Eschew: To keep clear of (Google says: deliberately avoid using; abstain from.)Gaffe: A social blunder; faux pas (Google says: an unintentional act or remark causing embarrassment to its originator)Garrulous: Prone to trivial talking (Google says: excessively talkative, especially on trivial matters.)etc. I'm not saying these definitions are wrong, but they just aren't always helpful in my opinion. When I created my vocab words on Quizlet app, I had to change a lot of these definitions up so that I could more readily understand them. I suppose this can be overlooked by some, but for me, this was my biggest criticism, and would suggest that you change the definitions in a way that you understand and can memorize.Overall, I really enjoyed this edition, although I noticed there was a 2015 edition released earlier this year. I would recommend this edition, but you may as well pick up the newest version to see if there are any significant changes to stay up to date with the ever changing GRE exam.EDIT: So I took the GRE yesterday and out of the two math sections I got, only one reflected the kinds of questions that I had. The first portion was difficult, so I believe I scored so poorly that they downgraded my second section, where I got most of them right. So I believe that the take away is that the quantitative section is actually harder than the practice questions in this edition, in regards to the quantitative section. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Book is good so far, wish I didn't get the premier edition *by D***C on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 26, 2012* I just received this book a few days ago, as other editions had been recommended to me as a prep for the GRE. I read the excerpts online and decided that this book would be great for me before I took the test. I considered the kindle edition to read on my iPad, but for some reason thought a paper book might be better for the studying, plus, the CD has timed practice tests with two extra. Well, now I wish I either bought the kindle edition or the non-premier.... the CD is Flash based and although the flash cards work just fine, the practice tests don't work at all with the latest version of Flash. I've tried two Macs with Flash 10.1.52.14 (10.1) and the tests just hang when you choose between timed and un-timed. I'll have to boot up Windows and try it there. Funny, as the other reason to get this CD was that I didn't want to boot up windows to run the ETS practice test on their website.Update: As per below, I got a downloadable version from support. Also, this book did help me prepare for the test. My advice is to read the whole book and take the practice tests! Good luck! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Effective and efficient *by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 12, 2013* This book gets straight to the point with great review material and effective tips, laid out in bite-sized chapters so I could take it all in 1/2 hour at a time. The five practice tests were invaluable; and while I think the questions on the actual test were harder than those in the book, that could have been my test-day-anxiety speaking.One of the best tips in the book is how important it is to practice on the computer - and this is the source of my one-star downgrade. The accompanying CD does not approximate the computer test well at all, most critically because (at least on my computer), the questions - including graphs, charts and diagrams - did not completely display in the window, so I had to scroll up and down to be able to read the entire passage and/ or see the whole diagram. That creates a real obstacle for simply reading the question and is not the experience on the actual GRE. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/6117310-gre-for-dummies](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/6117310-gre-for-dummies) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
