Are you taking the GRE?

Then you need GRE - A Strategic Approach - Complete GRE Prep!

Written by a team of experts with extensive experience in graduate-admissions test prep, our GRE - A Strategic Approach was written entirely with the unique needs of the GRE test candidate in mind and covers every facet of the test. Our expert subject review and strategy pointers give you an advantage on test day and help you get into the graduate school of your choice.

Focused chapter reviews cover all the information tested on the exam. The authors' lively, conversational approach explains the content and structure of the test in a down-to-earth, easy-to-understand style that takes the mystery (and anxiety) out of the GRE. Each review chapter is filled with examples, practice quizzes, sample questions, and drills to reinforce key concepts.

A full-length diagnostic exam is available online so you can pinpoint your strengths and weaknesses as you study. Two full-length, multiple-choice practice tests in the book simulate the actual GRE General Test. Each practice test is balanced to include every type of question, subject area, and skill tested on the exam. Our practice tests replicate the GRE question format, allowing you to assess your skills and gauge your test-readiness.

Every practice exam comes with detailed feedback on every question. We don't just say which answers are right--we explain why the other answer choices are wrong--so you'll be prepared on test day.

This test prep is a must-have for all grad school candidates taking the GRE!
