Product Description

The GRE subject tests are among the most difficult standardized exams. Rather than testing general problem-solving skills, they require highly specialized knowledge.

The experts at The Princeton Review have thoroughly research each subject test to provide students with the most thorough, up-to-date information available. Students don’t need to relearn the entire histories of their fields—just what they need to know to earn high scores on the exams.

Each guide includes one full-length practice exam, complete with comprehensive explanations for every solution.

user comment Cracking the GRE Biology Test, 5th Edition (Graduate School Test Preparation) Vocab List is Worth a Look and P. Test is Helpful
 
Review Date: December 1, 2005
Reviewer: Irene Music,
Barring the Hugh Grant look-alike on the front, I first thought this book was nearly worthless. Then I looked at the vocab list and took the practice test -- they were both very helpful. It's too bad the rest of the book is sinfully shoddy, made on cheap newspaper, all black and white type -- if you didn't learn it in Freshman Biology with the color photos and CD-ROMS and 3D glasses and cattle-prod or whatever they use now, then cheap newspaper and crummy drawings won't help now.

If you're trying to save money, you could just go to a book-store and copy the vocab list at the back. See if you like the p. test, you might buy the whole book (esp at the price Amazon has now -- I paid almost 30$ for it from a regular bookstore). But do get that vocab list -- it's about 30 words that were all over the test, words nobody in their right mind would know unless they knew it would be on a test.

The practice test was helpful because UNLIKE ETS, the Princeton Review p. test gives explanations for all the answers and I did learn a couple of terms/ideas that were on the test from which I benefitted by going through answer explanations and correcting my test.
user comment Cracking the GRE Biology Test, 5th Edition (Graduate School Test Preparation) very bad study guide
 
Review Date: April 7, 2010
Reviewer: Kevin Chau, USA
This book is poorly written. It only covers, at the most, 50% of the test material. Some contents might be wrong. The practice test is also bad, some of the questions are not clear. so DON'T BUY THIS BOOK!
user comment Cracking the GRE Biology Test, 5th Edition (Graduate School Test Preparation) Explains clearly but doesn't include all subjects fully

Reviewer: Chev,
The book is easy to read and gives background information and a general review but does not cover all topics, although it did mention some subjects not included in the Kaplan book. I think if used with proper review material to expand on the subjects mentioned it is useful.
