GRE Math Workbook: "22 + 7 = 39."

Liza: "Um . . . what? Hey, Sara, does 22 + 7 = 39?"

Sara: "No, it equals 29."

Liza: "Hey, GRE Math Workbook, why did you lie to us? I feel like we had a good thing going on, and then you had to ruin it all by lying to us. What's up with that?"

GRE Math Workbook: ". . ."

Liza: "Just talk to me. We can work this out. Please. I need you."

GRE Math Workbook: ". . ."

Liza dissolves into tears of sadness and frustration.

Not very useful at all. Most of the practice problems aren't written well and neither are their explanations.

I studied this and passed the GRE. It was okay.

Helpful, but I would also recommend the Princeton Review book Cracking the GRE. The math section in that one does a great job of explaining some the more confusing topics, and it goes over a few things this book skips entirely.
