Books to improve my English

Test Preparation
1

<p>What books do you recommend to improve my English specially vocabulary, so I can be prepared as much as I can for the critical reading part ?</p>

2

<p>charles dickens hands down</p>

3

<p>Wuthering Heights </p>

<p>btw, there are Kaplan SAT Score-Raising editions of that and a few other classics. They contain the definitions of harder words right in the book, which could be helpful.</p>

<p>Thank you, i saw a whole SAT score raising series on amazon
[Amazon.com:</a> The SAT Score Raising Classic Series](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/gp/series/93210/ref=pd_serl_books?ie=UTF8&edition=mass_market]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/gp/series/93210/ref=pd_serl_books?ie=UTF8&edition=mass_market)</p>

<p>I’d recommend Barron3500. If you can memorize all 3500 words, you will have no problem with SC.</p>

6

<p>Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary</p>

<p>Everyone has their favorites, but mine is [Word-Nerd:</a> vocabulary test prep for the SAT and PSAT](<a href=“http://www.word-nerd.com%5DWord-Nerd:”>http://www.word-nerd.com) for vocabulary. The words are organized to make them easy to remember, and you can test yourself on them as many times as you like and track your progress. You can also try [SparkNotes:</a> SAT Novels](<a href=“http://www.sparknotes.com/satfiction/]SparkNotes:”>http://www.sparknotes.com/satfiction/) - I think they’re kind of hard to read, but it might be worth a look for you. Good luck!</p>

<p>I am really confused guys :D, I don’t know where to find the 3500 word list, and also I’ve been told that it doesn’t include verbal and the Word Smart for the GRE is better.</p>

<p>I recommend the Barron’s 3500 word list, even though there are some of the definitions are too concise or they are wrong. But overall, it could help you with the SAT.</p>

<p>I found a list on flash card exchange, is that it?
[Barron’s</a> 3,500 Word List ~The Definitive List~ (Word List 01)](<a href=“http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/815279]Barron’s”>Barron's 3,500 Word List ~The Definitive List~ (Word List 01) Flashcards - Cram.com)</p>

<p>Ok, i guess i found it, but it has about 1300 more words.</p>
