review 1: excellent guide. well balanced on the coverage of the different sections of the GRE. they also do present different essay samples and the grade each essay received which was extremely helpful in understanding how essays are graded.the guide though doesn't provide strategies for solving verbal or quantitative questions which might be disappointing for some yet they present their answers to sample questions in a very compelling way and they provide more than a single solution method when possible so after a while you'll start to develop your own strategy for solving GRE questionsstill, I highly recommend listening to Magoosh lectures while working on this quide.
review 2: It's as dry as you would expect. There aren't many really special "strategies," but a good b... moreasic outline of the exam with key information, like how long for each section and general structure of the exam that will make it easier. They reveal potential "tricks" in the exam in their practice questions, like sentence completions I'd get wrong if I skimmed too quickly, therefore missing a negation that would require the antonym of the word I originally selected. I found some of the "review" sections to be lacking. For more in depth vocabulary review and math review (specifically geometry), I'd recommend online stuff or Princeton Review. No matter what, it's smart to invest in this simply because these people MAKE the test. less
