GRE Verbal Reasoning Supreme: Study Guide with Practice Questions is a work of non-fiction in the education genre. It is suitable for all ages of learners and has been published by Vibrant Publishers. This book is a comprehensive textbook to help students undertaking the GRE prepare for the Verbal Reasoning section of the exam. With practice questions and complete verbal tests that effectively simulate the real exam by covering a multitude of potential subjects, the answers provided include explanations to help you understand why the possible responses are correct and what you need to take away from them.

The team at Vibrant Publishers have done a fantastic job when creating this highly effective guidebook. As an educator myself, I always value the inclusion of clear and concise language which can help students to learn, but also to empower and teach themselves where their education systems may have fallen short. Its safe to say that this guide fills in all the essential gaps one might require when practicing Verbal Reasoning, but it elevates this advice with additional features such as logical and easy-to-refer-to organization, as well as a perky and inspirational narrative tone to keep students motivated through tough times. The extensive preparation question section would be worth getting this guide alone, not to mention the explicit explanation of guidelines and insider tips on what examiners are really looking for. Overall, I would certainly recommend GRE Verbal Reasoning Supreme: Study Guide with Practice Questions as a catch-all guide for teachers, tutors, and especially students looking to hone and perfect their skills before the big exam.

I love it. I honestly wish there had been books this in depth when I was first taking the GRE 14 years ago.
The questions are challenging enough without making me want to give up. The breakdown of the answers that are wrong and WHY they are wrong was super helpful and informative.
The walkthrough questions followed by 3 chapters of tests were great resources and extremely helpful.
I also greatly appreciated the opening section of the book - from explaining what the GRE is through explaining what has changed since COVID became part of our lives. This is especially important to me - both as a higher ed professional (so I can discuss the changes with my undergraduate students as they prepare) but also as someone who is thinking about retaking the GRE in the near future to get another degree.
I definitely feel that this is a great purchase and worth the investment if one is planning on taking the GRE soon or just needs a refresher.
