Kaplan GMAT/GRE/LSAT 2006 Platinum (PC)

Although I purchased several study aids, including Kaplan GRE Exam in a Box (which I also recommend), this little software package became my primary study tool.
My test prep was focused on the GRE. When I first installed the software & started poking around, the graphics seemed a little too "cutesy". But then I took the initial diagnostic exam, & was given approximate baseline scores which seemed quite reasonable (given that my high school math is about 30 years in the past, & I had done exactly no preparation).
Once the diagnostic is complete, the program builds a study program 4 you, which you can work through it at your own pace. That helped a great deal. The lessons brought back lots of old knowledge, & provided some shortcuts as well.
The program also includes computer-based flashcards & games that will help improve your ability 2 quickly respond 2 questions.
Bottom line: If you can get past the sometimes-hokey presentation, this is one of the best study aids available. My score didn't increase by 100. It increased by almost 300. A great tool!

The reason I recommend this CD is the practice tests & the vocabulary builder. When I took the GRE the first time I had reviewed my math & practiced my vocab, but I was not used 2 doing the problems in a strict time limited environment. This CD has practice tests that mock the real GRE, so you can get used 2 working under a time limit, & answering the questions on a computer. The vocabulary builder was a real help too. It is a game where you try 2 match the words with their definitions in a limited amount of time. The only problem I have with this software is it comes off alittle cheesy & childish when you do some of the lessons. Other than that, its worth using.
