How long did u study for the GRE? Was the real exam hard?

What were the minimum GRE scores that the grad schools u wanted to apply required?

How should I study for the GRE?

Info about me: I have my BA in English with a creative writing concentration and am applying to grad schools hoping to get into a creative writing program. I got a 29 on the ACT and had a cumulative GPA of 3.6 in college.

What’s the best way to study for the GRE? I’m not good at math and I’m not sure what else is on it. Is there a particular book or program that you think is better than another? What helped you prepare?

Thanks so much!

GRE score?

my friend just got finished taking the GRE. She needs a minimum of 1100 to get into most grad schools that she is applying for. She took the computer based test and got a score of 1090. However, she did a writing portion also. We were wondering if the writing gets added on top of the score or if it subtracts. I looked at the ETS website but it didnt really explain. the writing is only worth 6 points?
