CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Although this application does include a useful and extensive set of vocabulary for test takers, the program could offer a more creative way of learning words. WordHacker Mini Edition primarily teaches word definitions and pronunciations with a more limited list of words than its more advanced (and expensive) counterpart, WordHacker Golden Edition. The program's best attribute is that its word lists are drawn from standardized tests, such as the TOEFL, GRE, GMAT, and SAT. Along with definitions, WordHacker includes visual descriptions of words through an Internet image-search function, which essentially allows you to search for the best illustration yourself. We were most disappointed by how the program was set up, as there are no exercises or tests; the program simply reads off its list of words and follows each with its definition. Overall, WordHacker is a good program for vocabulary but not the most exciting learning tool.

Publisher's description

From Wordhacker :

WordHacker is e-learning software for the GRE, GMAT, SAT, and TOEFL tests with pronunciation, colorful root coding, and illustrations of each word. It will help you understand and memorize English words quickly. WordHacker has collected 18,165 words recommended in the TOEFL word list; the SAT 5,000-word list; the GRE Barron word list; and the GRE word list based on test frequency. It features standard American pronunciation, colorful root-word illustrations, and GRE-tested items (analogies, antonyms, and synonyms).

Version 4.04 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
