I have a really great book called Word Smart. The tips for learning new vocab work, and it has several word lists to work on.

Just an FYI though - the test can and does use all kinds of words. They don't have a particular list or subset of words that they are testing - so they really can use anything.

In general, of course, the more words you know, the more likely you are to know the words on the test. (And you can write more compelling essays, too!)
Please note: I do not use the Private Messaging system! I will not see any PMs that you send to me!!
