5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent vocabulary for speaking and writing tasks, January 4, 2008

This review is from: Check Your English Vocabulary for: All you need to pass your exams (Vocabulary Workbook) (Paperback)

The book is divided in two sections: the general and the topic-specific vocabulary. The former has 37 units, whereas the latter has 21 units. At the end, you'll also find the answer keys and vocabulary record sheets.

There is no theory but all exercises and this is, in my opinion, an excellent way to improve your vocabulary provided yours is already wide. However, if you don't know the grammar well enough, this book isn't going to be of help.

The best thing you'll get from this book is nuances on how to express yourself in everyday situations.

I found this book not very helpful. I took General Training Test and this was an unnecessary book in my arsenal.

This is an excellent book of English vocabulary words I'm not sure that it's "all you need to pass your exams," but it has certainly been a great source for a Korean friend who is just learning English.
