Rating: 5 stars
Summary: good for returning students
Review: Coming back to Masters studies is hard after starting a career. The Kaplan software helped get back in the "study mode" and was a great aid in preparation for the GRE's. A top notch product.

Summary: Fun, goofy, but great way to study
Review: Hesitant about taking another standardized test. Only used the GRE portion and it had enough drills, section and full tests to get me ready for the exam - to comfort level of knowing the range of my final score. Worth the money! A weird and goofy interface, but keeps it entertaining. They even applause for you! (we all need a little encouragement sometimes!)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Increase your score
Review: This includes your typical dorky narrators, however, it is well worth your time. This may be the only thing you will need to study for the GRE's with. My score on the analytical section went up hundreds of points after the work I did with Kaplan. I found the practice tests to be harder than that actual GRE. There was only one quirk with the software that I emailed Encore about with no response.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun, goofy, but great way to study
Review: This is a good way to review, but it is much more focused on the verbal than I would like. Face it, the verbal is going to be the easiest to program. I also had an older Kaplan GRE book (1998) and the problems were the same. In fact, the book came with this software, or at least a standard version. Kaplan has pretty good reviews of the GRE, but makes a lot of assumptions about your math ability. The GRE states this is high school math, I checked and for me it was 5th grade through 9th grade. No wonder I was so rusty. One can only hope that GRE will come to their collective senses and take fractions off the test, so make sure you have up to date info on the math sections before you walk in. I really liked the simulation of the CAT GRE.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Review, but lacking in math and analytical

Summary: Helpful study aid
Review: This product was good for me because it set goals for me according to my time constraints. The diagnostic test showed my strengths and weaknesses, and selected the items that were most appropriate for me to study. It contains flash cards, games, and a vocabulary builder on top of the lessons. The program was easy to use. I don't like that you have to buy the complete set of LSAT, GMAT, and GRE, when most likely you will only be taking one of these tests. Overall it was a good product!
