The Princeton Review doesn't try to teach you everything there is to know about English, mathematics and analytic thinking. They just tell you what you need to know to score higher on the GRE. There's a big difference. In Cracking the GRE, The Princeton Review will teach you how to think like the test makers.
This is accomplished by teaching you how to:
Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool you
Solve GRE analogies when you're not sure what all the words mean
Master the vocabulary words that appear most often on the GRE
solve GRE algebra problems by "plugging in" numbers in place of letters
*This book gives you 135 practice test questions covering each section of the exam, plus a CD-ROM with four full-length simulated GREs and instant score reporting. The questions in these tests are exactly like the ones you'll see on the actual computer-adaptive GRE, and every solution is fully explained.
