Pros and cons of Brain Blaze Vocabulary Flashcards for GRE®/SAT* Test Prep app for iPhone and iPad

Brain Blaze Vocabulary Flashcards for GRE®/SAT* Test Prep app good for

Thank god there is finally an app.to learn on. I really like this!!
This software has helped improved my vocabulary skills on like 156 words or so, I hope the sets are expanded though.
I played this app for the first time with my fiance. I love how the app repeats the words you missed later in the game. Brain Blaze is a great if you need to prep for your SATs or you just need a vocab. refresher!
I have learned and retained more vocabulary than I did in my entire college degree.
I recommend this app. It is well conceived and well executed. The user interface is friendly and the format for learning words is excellent. The selection of vocabulary words contains 156 adjectives, 156 verbs, and 312 nouns, for a total of 624 words. The words are the most common and easiest "vocabulary" words that appear on the GRE. For example, the words on two random pages are "assiduous," "tantamount," "concomitant," "discursive," "tenuous," "effulgent," "superfluous," "transient," "opaque," "pristine," "lucid," "tousled." In the future, I think that the total number of words should be doubled and should contain harder words.
Great app with a lot of useful sat words. My only complaint is that there is no study forum to show you the words with the definition to better absorb the info. For the words that you dont know and have to guess the flashcard changes to a new card before you can add the definition to memory or even reread it.

Some bad moments

This game closes every time I try to open it. Company does not respond at all. Total waste of money and time. Does not even deserve one star.
This app doesnt work properly. I emailed them asking for help... I never received a response! 0stars... What a waste!
