For students who lack
the time, money, and inclination to read an 800-page guide or complete
an expensive test preparation class, we offer
a shorter, cheaper, and more direct approach to GRE preparation.
Guerrilla Tactics
for the GRE: Secrets and Strategies the Test Writers Don’t Want You
to Know (ISBN
9781933819332) provides the
most important tips and strategies that you will need to know to get a
top score; it also gives practical advice to help you conquer the typical
traps and pitfalls that the test takers will inevitably throw your way.
At this point, you
may be wondering if you really need our publication. Throughout your life,
your firends and professors have
told you that the
only secret to acing the GRE is being a whiz in the classroom; if you
can read fast and handle complex math topics, you will do OK. From our
experience, they were only half right. In actuality, getting a
top score on the GRE hinges on TWO factors:
a. Knowing the material
that the exam is designed to test
b. Knowing the tricks of the test writers, who tend to ask the same
types of questions, with the same types of
traps and pitfalls, the same way on every exam
As a student, you spent years in school to master the grammatical and
mathematical concepts that are tested on the GRE. And, in most cases,
there were no tricks or shortcuts to learning them. But the GRE is a one-of-a-kind
beast that will test these concepts in ways you have never seen
before. It will also confuse and trick you in ways that you never dreamed
possible. That's why so many "great" students perform poorly
on the GRE;
they were blindsided by the tricks and traps of the test writers.
Thankfully, you can
conquer this aspect of the test far easier - and faster - than you learned
basic grammer and math. With our guide, you will learn
the the tricks of the test writers (and develop a plan to tackle them)
in just a few days. From our perspective, it is an indispensable step
in GRE
preparation.
That being said, we
absolutely do NOT want to mislead you about your specific chances for
success on the GRE. No ethical author or publication
can guarantee that a reader will get a perfect score if (s)he follows
a particular strategy or approach. Your performance on the GRE will depend,
to a
certain extent, on factors that are beyond our control, such as your:
1. ability to read
and comprehend dense passages quickly and critically
2. overall math and geometry skills
3. extemporaneous writing skills
4. working vocabulary
5. basic command of grammar and punctuation
6. tenacity and stamina on timed exams
Each student brings
a unique set of skills and talents to the exam; as a result, GRE questions
that are hard for one student may be incredibly easy
for another. This is why most one-size-fits-all approaches to GRE preparation
are inherently doomed to fail.
And that’s why
we’ve taken a different approach in Guerrilla Tactics for the
GRE, which every student can use to his/her advantage. Although we
have compiled an impressive amount of information in our appendices (including
a review of grammar and math basics and an assortment of vocabulary
tools), our goal is NOT simply to teach you grammar or math. Instead,
we are going to teach you the test itself, including the tricks,
traps and pitfalls
that the GRE writers use to confuse, distract and otherwise deflect your
efforts to answer the questions correctly.
Our goal? To help
you conquer the GRE, whoever you are, whatever your background, however
you choose to prepare for the exam. Like most battles,
preparation and skills are only half the equation. The other half is knowing
your target, warts and all, before you enter the battlefield.
But don't take our
word for it. Before you buy our guide, feel free to click the following
links for free "sample" strategies from Guerrilla Tactics
for the GRE.
Find out why the students we coach score (on average) 100 points higher
on each section of the exam than those of our competitors. Afterwards,
if you want
to acquire the same "edge," come back and order the entire 200-page
guide for $17.99.

How significant is this guide? Until now, we have NEVER endorsed a particular preparation strategy for the GRE, because of the many flaws that each system entails, such as high cost, incorrect focus, and needless memorization. Over the years, we've watched too many well-meaning students take that road..... with disappointing results.
Instead, after careful deliberation, we have opted to publish our OWN strategic guide for students who want critical insight into the GRE. From our experience, few students can achieve a top score without knowing - and mastering - the test writers' tricks, traps, and pitfalls. However you choose to prepare for the GRE, our guide should be an integral part of your program.
