Summary: Not a good test prep
Comment: I began my test review using this book... it was given to me by a friend, and I was happy to have the free book. However, I wish now that I had not wasted my time. I started my review with the vocabulary, which I admit is pretty decent. When I started to take practice tests, though, I knew I was going to be in trouble if I continued using this book. The practice test questions, particularly in the Analytical section, are absolutely worthless. They are too involved and lengthy, and are not at all accurate when compared with the style of questions found on the actual test. I scored 800 on Analytical on the GRE Computer-Aided Test. Even knowing that I received some of the toughest Analytical questions the CAT has to offer, I still feel that the Cliff's questions were completely off base and way too difficult. The Cliff's Analytical questions had so many more variables than the actual test that there was very little review value.

I broke down and spent the money on Barron's test prep two weeks before the test and was very glad I did. Trust me, if you want a good test review, do not use this book. I suggest you find a book that has good Computer-Aided Test guidelines and a CD-ROM, essential items which the Cliff's book does not have.

Summary: Not the only source, but helpful
Comment: The book provides a quick, ten-days like preparation for the GRE. If you want to get a reasonable score, you can use it but it should not be your only source. It provides three exams and their solutions, as well as some strategies for computer-based testing, but if you plan to take the CBT, you'd better try another source to practise.

Overall, it is a reasonable book and you can get reasonable training for the GRE from it, but you should not depend on it as the only source!
