Editorial Review: Product Description
The words people use say a lot about them. Some words say that they're smart, persuasive, and informed. Others say that they don't know what they're talking about. Knowing which words to use, though, is only half the battle: Once they've found le mot juste, they have to know how to use it correctly. Expanding one's vocabulary and learning basic grammar rules are two guaranteed ways to improve one's speaking, reading, and writing skills. Not only are these skills critical on standardized tests such as the SAT or GRE, they will also open doors for students professionally and even socially.
The Princeton Review is recognized as the nation's leader in test preparation and vocabulary- building courses. This audio program is based on the best-selling books Word Smart and Grammar Smart by The Princeton Review.
Four 60-minute Word Smart CDs include:
? 200 essential words grouped by topic
? Concise, accurate definitions and funny examples that listeners will remember
Two 60-minute Grammar Smart CDs include:
? Parts of speech and sentence components
? Grammar pitfalls--misplaced modifiers and subject-verb agreement
? Lots of fun examples illustrating correct usage

Summary: grammer and word smart
Date: 2008-05-12 - 
Comment: I like the product but there is too much unnecessary talk. I think the subject matter can be presented in a very simple form. I didn't really care for the alien story without a belly button. It was really annoying and distracting.
I would really like the Grammar CD to cover the Grammer rules and use of articles. As English is not my first language,I am dying to learn to express myself in English clearly. This CD has not helped me to the extent I needed.

Summary: Word Smart & Grammar Smart
Date: 2008-04-28 - 
Comment: I homeschool my 15 yr old granddaughter, using this program to help expand and improve her grammar and vocabulary has been wonderful. We work on one area a week and then use the words in writing, speech ect through the week. This has been a lot of fun and made learning "the hard words" much easier for both of us!
We use the program about 15 to 30 minutes a day.
I highly recommend it.
Thank you,
Karen Tindall

Summary: Great foundation

Comment: This is a great foundation for the verbal GRE. The word list is limited, but the format facilitates retention of the material.
I would certainly recommend this as part of the GRE study program.
