Just finished Practicing to Take the GRE by ETS. Or rather, I finished the section that deals with re-teaching information. I haven't taken any of the 7 practice tests, yet. I'm figuring that I should do that when I'm not at school in a lounge with four other people who are watching television or playing Wii.
Towards the end of the mathematics review my brain starting slipping a little. I definitely need to review the information about geometry and data analysis. There were a few things that I don't even remember ever learning in elementary, middle, or high school let alone college. That's okay, though, because I'll get back to it in future studying. Hooray!
As for the section that went over what the two essays in the GRE are all about, I'm really happy that the book went into what the test graders look for in the essays. I think that if I didn't know any better, I would have written the way that they don't want to see.
I've decided that the next book I'm going to get involved with is Barron's GRE 18th Edition. Sure, Barron's is the self-proclaimed "leader in test preparation", but Barron's and I go way back...maybe like to before this past summer when I got the GRE vocabulary prep book that I never finished. Where did I put that thing anyways?
Another awesome thing about this Barron's book is that it comes with a CD-ROM that houses "two additional computer-adaptive model tests on enclosed CD-ROM." I'm going to crack it open and see what happens.
