this is totally worth $0.99, there's tons of vocab and it helps a lot. buy it to improve your vocabulary base! it would be even better if they made an update with pronunciations though(:

Very nice

By: joannatrinh

Worth the price. It even goes over a word again and again once in a while if you forgot the definition!

By: willygrind

Could you make the app available for iPod Touch 1st generation, because that would be really nice

Very nice app!

By: Bagelface231

I already took the SAT but it looked helpful so I got it. It was actually really good. It was a nice, compact, on-the-go way to extend your vocab. I highly recomend it, even if you don't need to take the SAT

Great for a business professional!

By: lj322

I work in consulting and sometimes I need a brush-up on vocabulary when moving between projects. It has a clean, intuitive, no-nonsense design. It's most intelligent feature (why it trumps original flash cards) is its ability to feed you cards based on your past answers. Considering the SAT is CAT-based, this is a great concept to grasp. I sure wish I had this around in my day! I am already relearning words I should know for day-to-day business. Try it out - I'm a big supporter of 99 cent apps - you have little to lose and lots to gain!

Extremely Useful for Many Purposes

By: rlsnyc

I was very impressed with this app. If helps you prepare you SAT vocabulary by giving you words to practice based on your previous results. This is a great feature, it takes a look at each answer you make, and when you get something wrong, it gives you a word that is a little easier, and when you get something right it gives you a word that is a little harder. This is a great feature that "hones in" on your particular skill level. I also think Latin teachers would also like to use it with their students as well, since almost all SAT words are derived from Latin. Like the title screenshot that shows "erroneous" as an SAT word flash card, this will definitely hark back to those Latin lessons. And in general its just a really great way to practice your vocabulary! A great app, and for the price its cheaper than most SAT prep books. Its also lighter, of course, and it is interactive! Highly recommended!

I am smarter already!

Not just for sats

By: Janeyyyyyyyyy

I was just looking for an app to help me expand my vocabulary and this one seemed the most promising. I was not disappointed :) i am not a person who can just straight memorize things, so being able to relate the words to each other made it so much easier. Great app! :D

Mobile studying

By: Htabib

Very cool app for on the go studying. I like to use it when im in the car or on the train to school.

Well concieved, well executed.

By: Disastermanx

This is a top-of-the-line application. It takes the tried-and-true flashcard concept and makes it intelligent.

Great App

By: RDoom

Despite the fact that I had already taken the SATs multiple times, this application is still helpful.

Best sat vocab app so far! Worth the money!

By: Bdjcuejfug

Finally a good app for this! Tons of words with great sample sentences to help you remember what the words mean. Their whole roots thing is very smart and really helps. Clever. DEFINITELY worth the money. I'm surprised it's so cheap actually.

Worth every penny!

By: gtsivin

This app is literally worth every penny! The only Vocab app to naturally adapt to your skillset and literally spoonfeed you the knowledge that you need to succeeed.

Awesome

By: 520 Buffalo

Took the sat years ago, and this app is still great. Perfect for beefing up your writing and comprehension skills generally.

Awesome app. Love grunge mode

By: Dmvaldman

Minimalist design and east to use. You can tell the algorithms behind the study guide are optimized to help you remeber words you find difficult. Could benefit from a larger word database though. Grunge mode let's me stay true to my anti-establishment core while still feeding the college board with my parents moneys.

Very happy with this

By: TheDumbGraduate

Clever concept. Does what it says it does. Definitely worth the 99 cents for sure.

I feel eloquent already!

By: peterbak

Been using this for a couple of hours on the subway, on and off. App feels solid, word descriptions are great, even funny sometimes. I like how it adapts based on your feedback - if you don't know some roots, it spoon-feeds them to you until you start getting it. Highly recommended to anybody who is trying to extend their vocabulary!

Best vocabulary app. Period.

By: J. J. S.

I bought this to help me study for the GRE verbal section. I enjoyed using it so much that it quickly became my rimary study tool (sorry Princeton Review!). I love the way it tracks both the meaning and the root of words you get wrong, increasing your future contact with related words. It also has an amazingly useful section where commonly encountered roots are presented alphabetically with their most frequent word-contexts underneath. This feature alone is worth the buck you pay, easily. If you need to study vocabulary for the SAT or GRE, just get this app!
