Hi

I am taking a GRE test in about a week. I’ve been studying Barron’s prep book and having hard time on verbal part. I’d like to know if anyone have any suggestions on study materials, strategies, any websites for preparation, anything that can help to improve my scores on verbal and quantitative

Thanks in advance!

If i have taken the mcat course and decide to be a P.A, would i be prepared to take the GRE?, bc i know the GRE is easier, but would you recommend taking a kaplan GRE course or would buying books to study for it be ok?

I plan on taking the GRE during the summer of ’09. Should I take a GRE preparation course or would a preparation book from a book store suffice?

I am wanting to take the GRE and I want help in preparing for it. But I’ve looked and Kaplan and Princeton Review. Their courses cost as much as a down payment on a new car.

I need a structured test prep course for the GRE’s, i took kaplan and wasn’t happy with it… any suggestions

I would love top hear personal experiences with some of the more popular (and unpopular) prep courses, like Princeton Review, Kaplan or Testmasters. Also, has anyone heard of MILC? They guarantee a score of at least 1300 on the GRE. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I mean if we write GRE Math test then which colleges accept that score?

pls help me out. some say they get high scores just by memorizing intro psy books. is it true? i did not get very high gpa. i did not study very well in uni. you think 3 months of preparation for gre is enough?

i have completed my graduation in B.Sc can i eligible to write GRE entrance test

They both offer a month crash course/express to help study for the GRE. Which one would be more beneficial?

I am getting ready to take the GRE exam in December so I can start applying for graduate schools in the Spring. I am planning on getting a Masters of Public Health degree. I am fairly confident on my quantitiative reasoning, but my verbal reasoning might be another story.

For anyone who has taken the GRE, if I score good my goal (500 or more) on quantitiative, but score under my goal (500 or more) for verbal, but then the 2nd time score over 500 on verbal and my quantitative score is less the 2nd time, can I combine the scores from Test 1 and 2 to give me the best results? Or do I have to take both scores off the same test day?

Thanks!

I am taking both tests later in the year, and need to know the best ways to prepare, and what to expect. All well-thoughtout responses are appreciated, but I prefer someone who has taken at least one of the tests. Thank-you.

I am 14 years old and I am interested in taking the GRE math subject test. I am not entering graduate school, though I have taught myself undergraduate, graduate (and beyond) level math and would like to see how well I do on the test. Is there a minimum age you have to be to take it? Or any other restrictions that would keep me from taking the test?

What kind did you take, and did you think it was worth it in the end? Did it help you bring up your score much if you had taken it before?
I’m also wondering if anyone has taken it online, because I’ve got a really busy schedule these days and it might work better for me if it’s just as effective that way.

I’m taking the GRE in October & every student I have talked to has told me that it made them want to die and/or consume mass quantities of alcohol. However, every professor I’ve talked to has said that it’s not that bad. So which is it? And what’s a good score?
