A Solid and Sensible Way to Build Vocabulary
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I have taught English for over twenty years and have been using this excellent book and its "sidekick" -- 1,100 Words You Need to Know -- for nearly all those years to help students to improve their knowledge of advanced words. They are intelligently planned and really work. It makes good sense to learn words in the context of fields of knowledge. Another book I've begun to use recently is another (recent) Barron's book, Simon's Saga for the SAT I Verbal. This is rather advanced and for ambitious students. It teaches words in context and reinforces words by repetition and plenty of practice exercises. I suggest using Simon's Saga with 601 Words if you really want to learn a lot of words for the SAT, GRE, etc. -- not to just pretend to learn. You'll have to work, but you'll see your score improve.
Great for Vocab, but not for when you forget (and need) it!

I left my book at school and have to do a paper using 5 words from it... AHH!!! NOT a good thing... but I'll make it (somehow...). The book really is good, though. I'm not big on learning vocab, but it makes it really easy to learn.
