I have never heard of these tests...who publishes it?

I would stick with Powerprep (official tests) and the Princeton Review tests. They're the best ones.

I am not talking about Big Book tests, those are paper based tests..
There is one site http://edusoftech.com/gre-cat.htm..

chek it out ---> 15 tests (5CATs + 10 CBTs) for 518 INR..

Has nebody tried those out...???

I purchased GRE BIble CD but found few qns ( RCs and Analogies) lifted from other prep material like Kaplan and Cmbridge... Moreover they boast of unlimited CATs which is a fake claim as you cant even give 5 tests without seeing alsmost 50% of the qns getting repeated...Tho the essays & arguments and the vocab part is pretty fine..

I dont want something like this to happen again, and alerting all my fellows here too...!!!!

Ne1 here hving an insight into BIG CD Tests please post them here ..so that ppl like me can judge abt the S/W...

Thanks buddies..!!

Hi Nimisha,

Well my major sources of prep are..
1. BB
2. Kaplan
3. Cambridge
Didnt hv a good experience with GRE Bible....

Actually i came to know that BIG CD has some what tufer verbal so was thinking of trying it out..
but having got burnt by the previous experience of GRE Bible i am double cautious so making sure if their question bank is their original or simply lifted from other renowned S/Ws like mentioned above..

Some ppl in this forum seem to have used it so am looking for their comments....You are one..thanks..

More r still invited.........


Btw from where are u preparing..??
