I didn't take any math during my years in collegue...so this book help me to remember everything i was taught in high school.
Excellent review!

I was faced with the frightening prospect of taking GREs again, some thirty years after the first time I took them, since I'm now applying to grad school for a second Master's degree. I expected that I'd have no problems with the written portion of it, but frankly the math portion terrified me.
This book provided succinct and clear explanations of the basic principles I needed to do well on the math section. I am sure I would have scored in the 10th percentile without it; with it, I got a very respectable (for a humanities major) 650.
I have since passed it along to my daughter, who was preparing for her SATs. Her comments mirrored mine. I look forward to seeing how her scores improved over her first administration of the test.
I would recommend it highly.
Needs more practice problems

My problem is math doesn't stick with me unless I practice it over and over and over. This book does well at explaining concepts, equations, etc., but it offers very few practice questions. I especially needed help on probability, coordinate geometry and combination problems, and this book leaves much to be desired.

If you only have a few days to study for the test and you need to brush up the math skills; this is the book for you. It reviews all the concepts at a lightning fast pace.
