An
Important Note on GRE Test Books
We strongly advise all prospective grad
school applicants to purchase at least 2 books on the
GRE (Graduate Record Examination). First, we recommend
an official guide from ETS (Educational Testing Service),
the test's author. There is a difference between the
official questions you will be asked on the exam and
the practice questions contained in all other books.
Secondly, we recommend an "unofficial"
guide since there is indeed a way to study for this
test and materially improve your score. The better unofficial
guides contain many time-proven test-taking strategies
as well as excellent explanations for the correct answers
to the practice problems. You will greatly increase
your chances of receiving a higher test score if you
are armed with GRE test-taking strategies as well as
actual questions from previous exams.
