Customer Reviews
Great design Using Best Learning Practices
Outstanding use of "over-learning" by having responses made in different modes (synonym, antonym, connotation), PLUS fun use of iPhone technique PLUS timing and length of units really optimize learning experience. Kudos to designers for an app that is of GREAT added value in prepping for the test-taking experience. I guess Princeton Review's moving into such media shouldn't surprise me, but I do hope they will offer more than the initial 250-word set-- Also, I would love to see this format be adapted to other tests, like GREs, LSATs, SSAT/ISEEs, etc., and even have modules for AP-course material review? THAT would be really excellent!! Thanks for a totally satisfying app!!
A very addictive way to learn vocabulary!
After taking a SAT practice test I realized I needed to improve my word count. I really think that this app will help! In fact I know it already has as I have now "Mastered" 27 words (some that I didn't even know an hour ago). Racking up Mastered words really makes this game addictive. There are also funny congratulations milestones along the way.
This game is fast-paced and perfect for short breaks waiting for an appointment or in line at the store. The game is also well designed with a snazy retro school house rock thing going on.
Overall, highly recommend for students studying for the SAT or anyone who wants to master some 50 cents words!
actually worth the $
its got a ton of gameplay. better than dumb flashcards. and this one let's you listen to your music too - thank god
