The Best

Barron's GRE 2008 (Barron's How to Prepare for the Gre: Graduate Record Examination (Book Only)) 6 reviews
Sharon Weiner Green, Ph.D. Ira K. Wolf
Barron's Educational Series, 2007
Perhaps the best book for the GRE!
As a former graduate student and someone who has already taken the GRE before, several times, I went into preparing for the GRE in a way that a former prisoner goes back into prison. Those who have taken the test before will understand what I mean. The GRE forces some people, those who want to do particularly well on the test, to kill their social life and become prisoners in their homes studying ...

American Accent Training (Book and Audio CD, 2nd Edition)74 reviews
Ann Cook
Barron's Educational Series, 2000
This is it!
Great for English-as-a-second-language, or for those who just want to sound more American. American Accent Training is THE tool for developing your American Accent. I am American born, from the Midwest, so I bought it to help me learn how to speak better in my own native tongue. Most people don't realize that there is a unique, distinct accent that is truly American. And, contrary to popular ...

Barron's Educational Series, 2006
It has everything it's supposed to: not too much nor too little
A very adequate Book!
This book covers various types of questions for the Reading sectoin and the Writing section. It has lots and lots of practice for reading section but could have more for writing (the practice tests on the back can cover that).
It breaks down the reading section into two sections for each type of questions: Sentence completion and Reading. It has all the information you ...

Barron's SAT 2400: Aiming for the Perfect Score 2008 (Barron's SAT 2400)9 reviews
Linda Carnevale, Roselyn Teukolsky
Barron's Educational Series, 2006
Excellent
The first time I took the SAT, I didn't really study that much - I just took two practice tests the week before. I got a 2120, which is an okay score, but not what I was hoping for. After studying from this book for approx. 2-3 weeks, I got a 2330 on my second try. Although it's not perfect, I'm really happy with this score. 1st try: 720 cr, 680 math, 720 writing --> 2nd try: 740 cr, 800 math, ...

The Potty Book - For Girls74 reviews
Alyssa Satin Capucilli
Barron's Educational Series, 2000
Favorite potty training book!
I recently ordered several potty training books for my 22-month old daughter. This is by far her favorite! The rhyming quality of the book and the pictures are great. She loves the story so much she can almost recite it herself as we read!

Barron's GRE 2008 with CD-ROM (Barron's How to Prepare for the Gre Graduate Record Examination) 22 reviews
Sharon Weiner Green, Ph.D. Ira K. Wolf
Barron's Educational Series, 2007
Excellent GRE prep material
I would highly recommend this book for preparing to take the GRE general test. The review material, exercises and sample question answer explanations were very helpful in relearning math I originally learned over 20 years ago (I'm heading to grad school at age 43). To get a baseline, I took one of the sample tests before reviewing. Then I went through each math chapter carefully (but only ...

Math Workbook for the New SAT (Barron's Math Workbook for the Sat I)3rd Edition14 reviews
Lawrence S. Leff
Barron's Educational Series, 2005
One of two great resources for improving your SAT Math Score
I'm an SAT tutor that actually takes the SAT three times a year. This is a great book and I wish all my students had the discipline to use it. The complaint from the other SAT tutor is not relevant to the objective of raising your score (which if you are scoring in the 500's can easily go up 100 points if you use this book in conjunction with the eight practice tests in the College Board ...

Geometry the Easy Way19 reviews
Lawrence S. Leff
Barron's Educational Series, 1997
Easy and Fun
"Geometry The Easy Way" really does live up to its name. I had tried "Geometry for Dummies" before but I was unable to realistically teach myself the basics with that book alone. (Maybe I needed Geometry for morons!" "Geometry the easy way" started out with simple concepts and slowly built upon those. The chapters were short and had numerous exercises that were very helpful. I actually discovered ...

Barron Test Preparation
I have prepared students for the PSAT, SAT, ACT and have used Barron preparation all the way back to the 1980s. I use various other manuals and software, but my students tell me that the Barron is the quality preparation they need. It is more difficult than many of the resources and better enables them to score well. There is abundant testing material, answers well explained, the built-in flash ...

Excellent Resource
This book is wonderful! I had been using it at the SAT prep center where I work and finally broke down and bought my own copy. I use everything in it...the grammar review exercises, the sample essays with scoring, the practice tests. The questions are challenging and follow the SAT format closely. My students have never had complaints about the work from this book. The answer explanations are ...
