J.R. Cheadle’s _Basic Greek Vocabulary_ is excellent, though it contains nouns and adjectives so is closer to 1,000 words. It also has a list of prepositions/particles and irregular princple parts (all 6 of them). It was designed for the old ‘School Certificate’ in the UK, an exam taken at 16, scrapped in favour of the O-Level (now GCSE) in 1951. Needless to say, the GCSE these days requires rather less vocabulary. ---

The books like 500 Spanish Verbs that the OP is referring to are books where every page is one verb, and it gives the conjugation in every tense.
