5.0 out of 5 stars Good investment., January 9, 2008

By	Paul M. Turner (Huntington, WV USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I decided to take the GRE basically on a whim, and scheduled an exam right after I had finished finals for that particular semester. I did use a few other study methods for the exam, but this was by far the most helpful in a short period of time. I studied these cards intensively for about three days and ended up with a 700 on the verbal section. Take the deck once you get it and quiz yourself over them. Take all the cards you didn't get right and put them into one pile, and then study those. It worked well for me.

I bought several different study aids and used them all. This was the best of the lot. These words actually showed up on the test I took.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent GRE study tool, February 19, 2008

By	M. Grytdal (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The GRE Exam in a Box is a collection of 500 words commonly used on the GRE verbal section. I found this an excellent way to increase my vocabulary for the GRE, and many of the words I learned were actually on the test. I tried making my own flash cards, but much preferred using these cards. They had the word and its pronunciation on the front, and the definition, an example sentence, and synonyms on the back. The cards are sturdy, and were in good shape even after being carried around in my pocket. The definitions were simple and straightforward enough to be remembered easily.
