by Sarah Cage

From 2,001 to 3,000 of the full 5,000 words, with brief definitions, are free for individual and classroom use. A small-print, PDF version (Free) is good for printing.

Alphabetical list shows definitions, differences (aggravate, aggregate) and similarities (bibliography, bibliophile) at-a-glance for easy review.

These words are targeted for SAT test prep, but other tests, such as the GRE and GMAT, use the same collegiate words. GRE words and GMAT vocabulary are just hard SAT words; SAT prep will help you on graduate school entrance tests. The SAT vocabulary and SAT math advice also applies to GRE vocabulary and GRE math, but the difficulty is different.
