Review

Unlike my Barron's GRE prep book, the focus of the Nova's is not 'strategy' oriented. It doesn't run you through pages and pages of 'Apply this trick or that strategy for this type of problem'. Instead, it gives a few pages of supplemental background on the particular math subject, then straight to example problems. After those, the solutions are presented (which are very detailed). Material gets challenging using a 1.75 min/problem time limit, really good practice for keeping your head under stress.

 

I do recommend this for anyone trying to get a perfect score in the Math section of the GRE. Good luck! - Paul Vinh Phan
