The Powerscore Gre Quantitative Reasoning Bible (Powerscore Gre Bible) Study Guide Edition

excellent book!

What a bargain! The book was in great condition. Only two pages had writing in pen on them and the rest was blank. The cover was a little worn but for the price it was a great buy!

First off, this book gives some pretty decent information. That I have no problem with. What makes this book worthy of only 2 stars is that it seems like no one proof read it before sending it to be mass produced. I'm on page 152, and so far I've found multiple errors:-pg 44 in the left column all the numbers are off making it impossible to decipher-pg 61 -0.3×-0.2=.6 , the correct answer should be .06-pg 116 in a practice set (where it's most important to have your information correct) question 4 completely omits important information stating "the sum of x and y is 1 and their difference is __" it wasn't until I turned to the answer section that I found out that the blank was meant to say 1/2. Causing the question to become unsolvable-pg 124, it states that 7/4 is 1.85. Last time I checked, anything divided by four is a multiple of 0.25. The answer should be 1.75-pg 152 has an example question in which is states that line-RT=line-TS. In the explination, however it says RT=TU.For the most part, I understand what the writers are saying, with the exception of the error within the practice problem; however these errors are distracting and as I work through the book I'm sure I'll catch more. It seems to me that if you are going to market a book to help people study for an important exam, you should at least proof - read your product.

This could have better step by step explanations. But over all good and recommended to me by a lot of friends who have taken the GRE

I believe that the quantitative review that this bible bring is pretty good. I have received the 2019 edition of the book. The author did a great job in really addressing the different types of math material that could be on the GRE and how frequent each type of math is used on the GRE. I do believe that the "Application to the GRE" sections are good for those who may need to understand how the material is used by the authors of the test itself.I was able to use this book for a short period but did not receive any improvement the second time I took the test after studying this book. I believe that the math questions in this book could be better by supplying questions that would be more identical with the questions on the actually GRE with respect to how each math subject is addressed on the test. I believe that if I had more time, I would have improved my score. However, if there were more questions and questions that related more identical with the test day questions, I would give this test prep a higher rating.

Stay away from this book. Bought this book and the Verbal Reasoning boom and got a 147 and 151 respectively. The book makes some good points, but includes a lot of extra things that weren't even tested on the test. Also, their problems were so basic that I didn't get a realistic sense of what was on the test until I got to the Offical GRE question book by ETS - the makers of the GRE. They just recently came out with a 2016 edition of this book months after I bought the old book that was riddled with typos. It shouldn't have taken them 4 years to correct that. To me that showed a disregard for us as their customers for them to sell us an inferior product.All in all if I have to take it again to get into my school (not likely because of alternative admissions options) I definitely will not be going with PowerScore. I can't imagine being in a situation where my GRE scores were absolutely necessary and having my success depend on this book.
