After my friend went to a Kaplan GRE practice session, I decided I ought to check my score. I went to a separate center and took the same exam. I scored a 990 — the same score as my friend. I then learned that another of his friends scored a 990. I’m suspicious.

Has anyone else taken the Kaplan Practice and what are your scores?

Thanks!

I attend a little-known state school, but I am doing some advanced research in mathematics as an undergraduate. I intend to engage in a senior honors project in algebraic geometry, and I typically get above an 840 on the math GRE practice. I intend to pursue PhD studies in math, but I am inhibited by my low gpa (3.75–trust me, it’s terrible for a math PhD applicant in math who isn’t from a great school).

Long story short, I want to do Harvard math 55 for both personal and academic reasons. I would preferably do it before I take the real GRE, but I want to get admitted to Harvard as a special (i.e., guest) graduate student, which is far less rigorous. So I will take the general GRE first, of course, and likely be magna cum laude and have university honors. I am a math/physics/philosophy/honors quadruple major, though my focus has been pure math.

So my question is, how likely am I to be admitted as a special guest student to Harvard (I can’t imagine it being as difficult as regular admissions, certainly not math admissions), and how likely am I to be able to enroll in math 55 (it isn’t explicitly stated as a restricted course)? Hopefully, my only major concern will be paying for it (!).

Thanks yahoo! community!

-need to decide now…so i can enroll in Lsat practice coureses or gre practice courses
-i already know about joint jd/urban planning degrees, i just want to concentrate on one not both

I came across this site with GRE practice questions, and these questions seem extremely easy. The GRE is much more difficult, right?
