October 28, 2007: I think this book has serious flaws. Reflecting what 'Outmoded' wrote I agree this book does not prepare one well for a CAT test. Having taken the GRE and used this book I noticed the quantitative section of the CAT test starts off with much more difficult questions then the paper version. This threw me for a loop. The book has some value in providing a source of questions but skip the easy ones in this book. Also, certainly get some resources to prepare for a CAT based test.

March 09, 2007: This book is used by the likes of Kaplan and the Princeton Review to acquaint test-takers with the exact type of questions that they will be asked when taking the test on the computer. It is worth purchasing by those who are not paying for a prep course and are preparing for the test on their own. Together with the Princeton Review's 'Manual for the GRE', which covers most of the necessary concepts, this book was elemental in my preparation and I scored very well in the actual test.
