With elaborate chapters and abundant problems, this book is a perfect blend of learning and practice. Summary Of The Book In order to enable an easy and efficient selection process for graduate schools and universities, America's Educational Testing Service conducts the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). This standardized examination can be taken up by those students across the globe aspiring to pursue higher education in the United States and a few other nations. While the general GRE tests, among other skills, the mathematical aptitude of the candidates only to a certain level, the GRE Math Subject Test is a specially devised separate test for students looking to study pure mathematics. Conducted as a conventional paper test unlike the computer based general GRE, this Math Subject Test comprises all forms of mathematics including Calculus, Algebra, Arithmetic, Statistics and Geometry. Owing to this level of complexity of the Math Subject Test and it's grave significance in a student's career graph, the renowned Princeton Review group has come up with this ingenious handbook, Cracking The GRE Mathematics Subject Test. This book focuses on all the right aspects of test preparation and aims at honing the logical and reasoning skills. The book only delves into pertinent topics, cutting out all the unnecessary areas. Starting with Precalculus, this 4th edition runs through an exhaustive list of chapters that address Polynomial Equations, Analytic Geometry, Logarithms, Trigonometry, Implicit Differentiation, Definite Integration, Taylor Series, Double Integrals, and Linear Algebra. Besides the sections of review questions in between topics, there are also specific techniques and strategies discussed in the book that help students derive at accurate solutions without taking a lot of time. It is also full of insightful tips on how to quickly eliminate wrong answers among the multiple choices. Numerous sets of problems and the full length practice test with solutions are included to familiarize students with the style of GRE testing.
