Cricklers

Studying for the SAT and the GRE is not thought of as being fun, but it actually can be. One resource that I've found is Cricklers. It's a game similar to a crossword created by Michael and Barbara Crick. It has a specific vocabulary game, and it's pretty helpful. There's a new one everyday, but it does recycle eventually.

The web address is http://www.crickler.com/. It also contains other games about current events which may also be helpful.
