Best GRE Prep Books (and courses)
Everybody buys books and many people take GRE Preparation Courses. The Richardson Prep Centre offers Toronto GRE Preparation Courses.
Toronto GRE Preparation Courses run monthly.
The Official Guide To The Revised GRE is essential to your GRE prep. It is published by the test designer.

The Official Guide To GRE (10 edition):
Although this is based on the pre-2011 GRE format, it includes a number of “real GRE test questions” that are useful for practice.
Finally, books that do not come directly from GRE – “After Market” Books
There are many “after market” GRE books.
“After market” books may be useful as a supplement to your GRE test prep.
They should NOT be used as your sole source of GRE preparation questions.
There is not enough material available for the revised GRE General test. I have my test on August 2, 2011. Could you suggest me some books? I have ETS Official Guide to the Revised GRE general test and Kaplan’s New GRE Premier, but I need some more material. Please help me.
You are right. There is very little available. Some of the question types are being carried into the Revised GRE. Therefore, you could use the current GRE prep book from GRE – “Practicing To Take The GRE”.
I believe that Princeton Review has also published a book about the Revised GRE. But, in general you should stick with the material from the test designer.
