Real Student Reviews
It ranks words by how likely they are to be tested — not just padded dictionary lists. Every word I study is a word that will actually come up.
I used to forget words the moment I moved on. VocabShiba's SRS genuinely works. Must-know vocab sticks way better now.
The top 1,000 words cover almost everything DSE actually tests. After two months of daily study my mock reading scores jumped noticeably.
