Summary: Great notecards!
Comment: The GRE flashcards are great. Could have been presented a little better, maybe as actual flashcards, but the book helps to keep them all together. Very beneficial to have word used in sentence as well.
Customer Rating:
Summary: GRE Lifesaver
Comment: These flash cards are fantastic; they helped me to a perfect score on the GRE Verbal section. While it helps if you use these in conjunction with other GRE exam prep guides, these cards can serve you well on their own. Note though, this is a flashcard 'flip book', not a set of true flashcards. If you're looking for real English flashcards, try Vis-Ed's line of cards, but be aware that their English flashcards are very basic.
Bonus GRE tip: It helps to know several languages for the GRE verbal section. Many of the 'increasing difficulty' words are foreign words imported into English. Look out for them! This vocab book points you in the right direction for these, but the list is not exhaustive.

Summary: Great starter flashcard deck
Comment: The deck is a bit bulky, but I like the fact that they are bound, so that I wouldn't lose any of them. I also like that the synonyms are listed along with the definition of the word, and that there is plenty of empty space for me to make notes. It would have been great to have antonyms as well.

Summary: Helpful Flashcards
Comment: 500 words isn't too much to handle. With other books there is a "comprehensive" list of thousands of words and it is far too daunting. 500 words is managable and knowing these words well will help with many many others.
I went through parts of the book every night for 1 month and saw my scores increase steadily on practice exams before the real deal. It went well.

Summary: GRE Flash cards
Comment: Content excellent, I thought the format would be "flash CARDS" as the title suggests, not a fat book that is difficult to carry and use during "brief" breaks, i.e. waiting in line, stopped at red light, vacuuming...
