This review is from: McGraw-Hill's Conquering the New GRE Verbal and Writing (Paperback)
it is not difficult enough compared to the real GRE. However, it is a good start for someone like me, who's more of a quantitative person than a verbal one. It gives you a good basic list of some 300 words to start off with. The review of logic to help with the argument essay was also very helpful for me. However, if you do want to score high, this book is not enough, as the practice problems are simply to easy and not challenging at all. However, it is still a good book to "get your feet wet" and build up some confidence. Happy studying!

It contents one set of samples scoring 6, 4 and 2 for both argument and issue parts to be compared with your own writing. This is extremely helpful.
