Is there a poll here in regards to the best books?

[Chris_Khouri]

Hi guys,

Can we make a poll? I bet you it will be one of the most important resources on this site. I am still trying to determine the best books/materials to purchase. I posted a questioner a few days ago about this subject but it was not posted.

Thanks.

Chris

You might want to check this thread:

Also input on the search function "prep for gre" or "best prep". There are many topics concerning the matter.

On my personal opinion Princeton Review is good, but should be complemented with the Kaplan Premier and the ETS Official Guide. If you want to go deeper and search for a top score, try Manhattan.

Avoid McGraw Hill's Conquering the GRE, and the Kaplan Math Workbook.

What I was thinking about seeing if we could do is post some sort of poll that will allow us to compare our final GRE scores with how close they were to the practice tests. I don't know how that would work - maybe diff. poll options for, say, "Kaplan 1-5 points off," "6-10 points", "Princeton 1-5 off"... things like that. One of the problems is that not everyone takes ALL of the different practice tests, so this way it would - after a few people chimed in - offer a pretty good overview. But regardless of how it's done, I think it's a great idea.
