About GRE 500 Basic
This app provides an effective way to add 500 essential words for the GRE, based on Manhattan Prep reference, into your vocabulary, and then use them to ace the Verbal section.
There are two modes to help you digest this list:
* Learning mode: using flashcards mechanism with easy-to-understand definitions and sound support.
* Testing mode: practicing with fill-in-the-blank, multiple-choices, and true-false questions will help you grasp different meanings of the words, and, more importantly, understand them in various contexts. On the other hand, you will also acquire the ability to actively recall these words, which is very efficient in consolidating long-term memory.
Both features are implemented using the spaced repetition algorithm, a proven and best suited method for this kind of task.
You can open this app whenever you have time to spare, as it can be used with any amount of time, ranging from minutes to hours. On the whole, the key to your success is to open it and learn new words everyday, and soon the results will come out. Just keep drilling!

As a side note, you should master all the common words in this list before moving on to the 500 advanced words list.

This is a very useful app, among the very few good gre vocab prep apps. The ads are only sporadic, the interface is simple and stable and the definitions are clear and sometimes mixed with amusing humor. It also contains pronunciations of each word. Right now when you see each new word it forcefully plays the pronunciation. They could instead put a sound button next to the word to make hearing the pronunciation optional. All in all, a terrific work. Kudos to the developer(s)!

Firstly, I'd like to give the developers complete credit for inserting an initial pronunciation of the word, followed by the thorough analysis of the words, including the meaning, context and example(most cases). Missing the 5th star because it fails to show the list of words someone may have to quickly run through or if someone wants to skip a few words and jump to the ones they don't know.
