I previously purchased all of the other books from TBR yet did not think that I would later want the verbal book. Now that I am running low in passages, I asked for a quote for the verbal book and it will cost $188. Is it worth the price since I have used the PR verbal workbook and EK 101?

If you use a credit card, the total cost is going to be: $182.00

How did you fare with EK 101? I ended up using only that book, and completed passages until I was able to get a set amount in a row correct, and then stopped working on verbal. I ended up with a great score, even though I was slightly worried about it.

However, you have so much time! I wouldn't know what to do with that much time. Do you have any other source for passages? 😉
 
$188 is a ton of money, I'd look elsewhere for that book. Lol, i'd sell mine for $187 no writing haha

I am out of passages, all that I had was the EK101 and TPR verbal workbook. Refuse to use kaplan, so shall I try the gold standard or something?
