This book is an enjoyable read,yet don't expect it to be a magic bullet.Here's the thing:if you don't know what you're doing before you buy the book,buying the book makes very little impact. I took the GRE and got a quant score in the TWENTY THIRD PERCENTILE. Mind you,this was after several weeks of prep. To be fair,i was an English major,so my skills were not the best anyway. If you think buying a book will change drastically your skills, you're most likely mistaken unless you have, i would estimate,about 100 hours of studying and practicing. With that being said,reading the book was mostly enjoyable;the terminology is understandable and the author has a sense of humor which is relaxing. I honestly enjoyed reading the book at times and i felt more confident about my math skills afterward. So buy it if you're taking the GRE's,but understand that, as with any prep materials, it's just another part of the educational racket.

Since this is my very first SAT test prep, I can't compare this book to other test preps in the market... My score used to be hovering around 1500, and after using this book for few months, my blue book test prep score soared to 2050. and I gave it 4 stars just for the fact that other books should do the similar job - since I studied hard. This book covers pretty much the entire materials that you need to know for the SAT 1, and rather just solving questions in the book, by understanding and learning specified strategies that fit to each question type, I was able to maximize my SAT score. If I had studied every single material in this book, I think I could've increased my SAT score up to 'stable' 2100. Overall, this book was really helpful to me.
