SAT GRE Crash Course teaches 840 frequently appearing SAT and GRE words. It features a study level and five different learning levels. The five learning levels allow the student to attack the words from different angles allowing more complete learning. A special "Crash Course" rapid learning plan is also included.

The 840 vocabulary words are divided into 42 lists of 20 words each. It is suggested that students master one word list at a time. The word list may be selected from the "Subject" menu at the top of the form.

After selecting the appropriate word list, the player is ready to proceed to Level One. Level One, "Quizzes - Multiple-Choice," is the standard vocabulary quiz with which most students are familiar. Each vocabulary word has five multiple choice answers; the student must pick the correct one. Whether the student gets the answer correct or incorrect, the full definition of the word is provided for further study.

After finishing Level One, a list of words will appear. The player can then mark the words that he or she doesn't know well enough. This word list will appear after each level except Level Four. At any point the student can choose to concentrate on his or her marked words by selecting "Marked Words" from the "Subject" menu.

Level Two, "Quizzes - Multiple Choice With Definitions First," also has vocabulary quizzes. On this level however the definition is provided and the student must pick the word that best fits the definitioon.

On Level Three, "Flip Cards - Supply The Definition," each vocabulary word is presented to the student. The student then must define the word to himself and hit the submit button. He then must compare his definition to the one provided, and score it on a scale from zero to five.

On Level Four, "Matching," the student must match the ten words in column one with the ten definitions in column two by dragging and dropping. Hurry up! To receive the highest score of 100, you must complete all 20 matches in 60

The jokey, conversational style of the Complete Idiot's Guide series is better suited to some of its many subjects than to others, but for the Guide to Grammar and Style, it works. This book might not be appropriate for professional proofreaders in search of the definitive use of the en dash, but it is a solid, amusing volume for those who daydreamed through grade school and would like to brush up on the fundamentals. Puns, silly humor, and hyperbole abound, but so do the entertaining quotations from beloved masters of the English language that author Laurie E. Rozakis has managed to dig up.

Nonnative speakers of English will find this instructional workbook a helpful source for improving and expanding their English language vocabulary in preparation for the IELTS examination (International English Language Test for Students). Over 60 activities are provided, including word games, puzzles, and quizzes that are specifically designed to target problems areas common to nonnative speakers.

This workbook has been written for students who are planning to sit either the general training or the academic modules of the IELTS exam. It covers some of the main vocabulary points that you will need for, or come across in, the listening, reading, writing and speaking sections of the exam.
We hope that you find the modules in this book useful and that the vocabulary you acquire will help you to achieve the grade you want in the IELTS.

Remember your good old English textbook which started with an introduction of the characters who would be in the dialogs throughout the units? That's how this book is laid out. Idioms are contextualized and there are various consolidation exercises between units to reinforce them. The accompanying CD is very clear and the voices convey the moods of the characters - although I must say that the man who does Bob's voice sounds incredibly boring at times as his voice doesn't seem to show much pitch variation. Some of the idioms are already known to most high-intermediate students, but there are many others to learn, so it can certainly satisfy those students who resent not having enough "real-life" vocabulary in class. It may also be useful for the student working on his own, once the explanations are very clear. In a nutshell: It's worth buying if you're looking for a simple - yet effective - way to explore the most common idioms of American English.
