Author Description

The new edition of this comprehensive test-preparation manual has been radically revised & updated to reflect the most recent Graduate Record Exams in length, structure, question types, & degree of difficulty. The book features five model tests with answers & explanations. It also contains all new & up-to-date subject review material in its mathematics & analytical ability sections, as well as all-new questions in those sections of the model tests. Other important features include a 3,500-word vocabulary building list, plus practice & review in sentence completion, reading comprehension, & all other test areas. The manual can be purchased with an optional CD-ROM that features a model test in the Computer Adaptive format. Computer Adaptive tests present a succession of questions that are measured in difficulty according to the test taker's ability level, which is measured by responses to the test's initial questions. Since these tests are not linear, but are created from a behind-the-scenes pool of questions, the CD-ROM presents a test that is unique for each user. All questions are answered & explained, & exams are scored automatically.
