We use this book because it uses actual GRE questions that are written by the same people who write and select the questions in the exam question pool. This ensures that you are preparing for the test with material that closely matches questions you are likely to see on the exam.

We don’t offer a guarantee that your score will increase by a certain percentage or score, and here is why:
Guarantees cost you (the test-taker) time and money, but don’t provide you with more value or help you get the results you need.
- You don’t want a Guarantee - You want to get the score you need to get into your program of choice. We are committed to helping you achieve that goal.
- Our instructors are available before, during, and after class to offer extra help, if needed.
- You have access to the instructor via email, even after the class concludes, to ask questions and get help with sticking points in your preparation.
- Guarantees come with fine print, usually outlining what you need to do to qualify for a refund, etc. The burden of proof is always on the student.
- You can retake our class for any reason, for a nominal fee, if you decide you need to.
First, very few people find that they need to retake the class. Our program includes a study plan and homework that is designed to help you achieve the results you desire. If you complete the class assignments, study, and follow the testing tools we provide, we are confident you will achieve the results you want. Most people who do retake the class do so because they found they couldn’t prepare properly for personal reasons. We understand that sometimes things come up and you may need to postpone your preparation, and we are here to help. The retake fee is 50% of normal registration fee.
You may cancel your registration up to one week (7 days) before the class start date, and receive a refund minus a $25.00 administrative fee if no materials have been downloaded and all physical books, if any, are returned unopened and/or free of marks. Non-refundable otherwise. Notification of cancellation must be received by email at testprep@jmu.edu.
