Just the tests,
This review is from: Gre: Practicing to Take the Physics Test (3rd ed) (Paperback)
Sadly, this publication by ETS contains nothing but 3 old GRE physics exams of (presumably) retired questions. The correct answers and the scoring statistics are given, but there is nothing in the way of explanation or discussion or strategies for attacking the test. Still, you should probably get this because its the only place you can get your hands on ETS's actual problems. Other books that purport to train you for the GRE often disturbingly misunderstand what kind of things ETS expects you to know and do on the exam. This book is only helpful if you invest a lot of time in it, but I still reccommend it highly if you plan on taking the physics GRE.

A book you want to see before the test.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Gre: Practicing to Take the Physics Test (3rd ed) (Paperback)
This book neither tells you how to solve the problems nor what knowledge you are expected to have before the test. This book contains only problems and answers. When you think you are ready for the test, this is the book you want to use. This book contains four actual tests and helps you time your exam and get used to the style of the exam. I found "Physics: The Easy Way by Robert L. Lehrman" a good book to review the kind of things asked in GRE physics test. In GRE physics test you are asked a hundred small questions which can be solved almost without calculation. You want to review the essentials and get used to the style of the exam for high score.

An Excellent Review of the GRE Physics Test,

This review is from: Gre: Practicing to Take the Physics Test (3rd ed) (Paperback)
I used this book to prepare for a test in early 2002 and was surprised at the amount of similar questions posed on the actual exam. It's true that ETS recycles many of the test questions each year and the Physics test is no exception. If you are looking strictly for more in-depth test taking strategies then you should consider another book, as for practicing on actual test questions this book wins hands-down.
