Product Description

Far too often, students offer the same excuse for scoring poorly on the quantitative section of the GRE. “I understand the theory, but I can’t solve word problems.” Sad to say, but in the world of standardized tests, this is analogous to saying that you know the alphabet, but you can’t speak in sentences. Getting a top score on the GRE requires far more than plugging numbers into formulas. You need to be able to apply your mathematical skills to convoluted word problems that test your ability to read clearly, interpret quickly, and determine the optimal plan of attack. Most importantly, you need to be ready for the typical tricks and traps that the GRE writers use over and over again to snag unsuspecting students.



This publication takes a common sense approach to preparing for the quantitative section of the GRE - it presents EVERY topic in the form of word problems, which range from basic to complex. We will test your knowledge (and speed) for every topic from addition to probability, including all of those annoying word problems involving mixtures, age, rates, and geometry. Use this book to fill in the gaps – and to find creative ways to solve “killer” problems without breaking a sweat. To ace the GRE, you need to conquer math word problems. If you’re willing to learn, this book can help.
