This book contains as many as 1,650 core TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC words along with synonyms, definitions, example sentences, and 29 different reviews provided by my colleagues and students. In order to help students preparing for the TOEFL iBT/TOEIC to memorize the words more effectively, certain words have stars (*), which indicate the degrees of difficulty of memorizing them. Based on my long-term TOEFL/ TOEIC teaching experience, students preparing for the TOEFL iBT/TOEIC must precisely learn the definitions of the core TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC words in this book to enhance their TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC scores. Once students have memorized all the words, they will be able to start dealing with questions from the reading, writing, listening, and speaking sections more easily and efficiently. I have no doubt that this book will enable students to become better TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC test takers.

Students of English as a Second Language will find vital help as they build a large English vocabulary. Nearly 500 words are listed with definitions and pronunciation help.
