When I type in echo $JAVA_HOME, I get $JAVA_HOME instead of the location of the jdk. I set the path from the environment variables correctly:
Variable name : JAVA_HOME Variable value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_25
what am I doing wrong?

The echo $JAVA_HOME command-line must return the complete path directory to java executable.
Right click My Computer and select Properties. On the Advanced tab, select Environment Variables, and then edit JAVA_HOME to point to where the JDK software is located, for example, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.
Verify JAVA_HOME Enter the command echo %JAVA_HOME% . This should output the path to your Java installation folder. If it doesn't, your JAVA_HOME variable was not set correctly. Please make sure you're using the correct Java installation folder, or repeat the steps above.
JAVA_HOME is an operating system (OS) environment variable which can optionally be set after either the Java Development Kit (JDK) or the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is installed. The JAVA_HOME environment variable points to the file system location where the JDK or JRE was installed.
Try echo %JAVA_HOME% instead of echo $JAVA_HOME.
The first is for Windows (I'm assuming it's windows based on your filepath), the one you're using is for Linux.
