A-Plus Notes for GRE revised General Test First Edition

This book is a good effort - I was expecting a lot more out this book but was a bit disappointed. There are a few typing mistakes and some incorrect solutions as well. The books also covers many topics that are not on the GRE-GMAT exams. The practice problems are good but again - there are a few mistakes in the solutions and many of the problems do not have any solutions - just an answer key. There are a few neat shortcut formulas that the author has included - but you have to look for them carefully. Graphs are explained in detail and there is a lot of text on parabolas, ellipses and hyperbolas - which you don't really see on the exams. Topics like Probability, permutations and combination and not covered in great detail - the high level GRE problems focus on these topics. The data interpretation section is virtually non existent. Some of the GMAT topics are covered but again. 4 out of 5 stars for the effort and practice problems. Also of note - the author Mr. Yang is very responsive and provides additional clarification if requested.

The math review is helpful and the book is fairly well organized, but it is a mostly under-whelming effort at teaching. English is clearly not the author's native tongue and the persistent typos and grammatical errors frequently interfere with meaning and syntax. There are also occasional discrepancies in the answer keys that make it hard to figure out the correct answers. Bottom line: shop elsewhere for a good GRE math-prep. book. I probably should have known to not take math instruction from a guy named "wRong".

Great explanation of complex math that I learned in high school and have completely forgotten!! I bought several GRE prep books, but this is the best one!!

Great and easy transaction! Thank You! The item came as described and it came in a timely manner, no problems at all!

I used "A-Plus Notes for SAT Math" in high school to prep for the SATs to get into college, and now I'm using "A-Plus Notes for GRE/GMAT Math" to study for my graduate school entrance exam. This book provides a simple and easy way to review the math topics needed for the actual exam. A few specific things I found really helpful were that all graphing techniques of transformations are presented together (pages 151-153), all rules of circles are presented together (pages 239-240), and all area formulas are presented together (pages 245-246). I haven't found any other review book that offers such an organized and user-friendly way to review and study the material; actually I haven't found any other books that even come close. Thanks Mr.Yang for writing this great book!
