1100 Words You Need to Know has been one of the top-rated and best-selling vocabulary books in the market for over 4 decades published by Barron’s Educational Series and written by Murray Bromberg and Melvin Gordon.

Many students and SAT / ACT candidates have been satisfied with this book and its various sections, especially analogy exercises in real context, such as novels, magazines, TV shows, etc.
