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. This advanced vocabulary book helps you to learn advanced academic words and idioms in context with answer keys by the end of the book. 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.
