POWERPREP II Reviews & Product Details

I am not a fan of standardized tests, so I cannot say I like anything about ETS. The website is easy to navigate, provide useful information and that is pretty much it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is so expensive that is almost ridiculous. For a computer-based program, they make a lot of money. When I took my GRE exam there were TWO employees working during the entire duration of my exam, and about 8 people taking the test. Paying people' salary does not justify the huge amount of money we pay for each exam. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Powerprep II is produced by the creators of the GRE, so you know it is the closest experience to the actual test, both in terms of features and quality of test questions. The software comes with 2 Full Length GRE practice tests, and the questions have the same level of difficulty as the original test, so it is the perfect tool to assess your skill level and how prepared you are for the test day. Additionally, the program provides the option to time both tests (or untime them) and an onscreen calculator, so you can train yourself under timed conditions for best results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The program in general feels a little outdated and can become more user friendly by improving the GUI. Also, needs more tests for more practice and better results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Powerprep II has tons of features that make it a MUST have for any student taking the GRE. However, the best part of the software is that it gives you two FREE tests that are modeled on the actual GRE, and it is also timed, so you get a real feel of the actual test day and prepare yourself for the experience.. Powerprep II is known as the best software in training students for ETS based Graduate Record Examination or GRE. The most liked part in Powerprep is that it is officially from ETS and if free for training. The look and feel of software gives more confidence in students with taking practice tests.

The on-screen calculator on Powerprep is very difficult to use and can be made much more easier to use. Also, ETS needs to update the software with new tests or give the option to buy more "PAID" tests for candidates who want to practice more. There is only one thing that is to dislike with ETS Powerprep II, It is that only two test are available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Powerprep II is the official software of Educational Testing Services, and it has full GRE practice tests that help evaluate skill levels as well as needed pace of preparation. The quality and level of difficulty of both verbal and quantitative portions of the practice tests is very close to the actual difficulty level of the test. Also, it is free, which makes it a winner for anyone planning on taking the GRE exam. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's good but somewhat difficult to install and operate. Once it gets going, it runs fine (except for the occasional crash). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This tool mocks the real GRE test and offer the test taker an insight into the problem type. It's quite useful for these who prepare for the GRE for the very first time. You shall receive a unofficial score telling you where you should get improved. Also, the timing indicate how fast you should finish the tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are only two available mock tests. There should be more mock tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best feature i like in powerprep II is the look and feel of actual exam. Powerperp has two free tests with timed and untimed first and timed second text. The software also gives you a analysis of your test at the end which will help in improving your score to the best of your ability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Powerprep II has everything in place but one thing that i fell to be improved is the number of tests to be taken. This is the only feature that i expect to be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its so easy to use and the interface is just simple clicks of a button. Also, when you have to change the course or end the section in the say the Reading section of GRE you can just click the end button and move to the next section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The back button is sometimes laggy and has bugs. Also, the interface looks old and primitive. It needs to be fixed and bought up to date to the current GUI standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PowerPrep II contains limited test practice material for the GRE, and since it is the official ETS program, I would recommend it to anyone who is planning on taking the GRE. If you are taking the GRE using a computer, you should practice using PowerPrep, because it is the absolute closest approximation of the GRE test environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a limited number of tests that you can take on PowerPrep - this limits how much you can prepare, and you will want to be strategic when in your studying you choose to use PowerPrep. The interface itself isn't very good, except in that it approximates the equally-not-good interface that the you will have to take the GRE on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Practice tests were super helpful, like that there are explanations for every question, like that you can do either sections or full tests Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wish there were more available tests and sections to go through (for the GRE specifically). Haven't used this for other test prep Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike about powerprep. I just hoped there would have been more tests of these quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think ETS is the only place you can register for tests like GRE and TOEFL. at least that was the only one I knew of when I used it. It also provides so many test taking tips and tricks, advice, practice questions and sample questions. It is a great help for test prep. Their test prep locations are conveniently located and test scores are accurate and detailed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't think there is anything I dislike about this one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about this website is its facilities and the customer experience, since it makes search practical and different types of tests and preps come in handy. Once I had to use it to take the TOEFL test, and I could easily find the options, one click leads to the next necessary step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike is the amount of information it presents. Sometimes it can be hard to understand due to the quatity of info showing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used this software for my GRE and TOEFL exams about 2 years ago. The best thing about these is that they are realistic. They don't have stuff that is too easy or too tough for the GRE. Since ETS conducts the exams, they know best the material used in the powerprep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is really nothing to dislike. The books and softwares are super easy to use and have solutions that are accurate. I wish though there was some way they could review the essays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Praxis version of the test prep materials broke down the test into categories just like the assessment. I highlighted within the book the areas that I was not confident in. The font was easy to read and the book wasn't as daunting as some of the other prep books. I also purchased this online and was an affordable price. After taking the Praxis exam, I received an award for scoring in the top 10 percent of all test takers. I do feel this is due to my study habits with this book. My weak areas were science and history and this book made it much easier to focus in on these areas. Good luck all you test takers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I really disliked was the pages were kind of thin in my edition. I did highlight in my book as previously mentioned and sometimes the color bled through to the other side. Yellow highlighter was not as noticiable. All other organizational aspects of this book were fantastic! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's convenient, clear and user-friendly. It allows for switching before different types of questions which is useful. Also completing the exam on an electronic setting is better practice than the paper exam in the book. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's expensive and sometimes can we slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
