I’m in my final semester as an undergrad math major. I’m trying to decide between going to grad school for applied statistics or pure math.

I have a problem though. Like anyone else applying for grad school, I want to qualify for a fellowship or stipend. However, because of my schedule and the limited math majors at my school, I didn’t get to take topology, differential equations, and group theory. I have a 3.67 g.p.a and have gotten better than an A- in all my math courses.

I going to take the GRE to reinforce my qualifications. Any suggestions on how to teach myself topology, differential equations and group theory in 3 weeks? I need to get a high score on the GRE to compete against others for a fellowship/stipend.

Also, any ideas on good schools for applied statistics or pure math? (maybe schools that don’t worry as much about a GRE score and give more weight to G.P.A?)

Any answers would be appreciated.

i took 3 toefl ibt exams due to getting high Score ( 100 out of 120 ) , i want to know whether the number of toefl which i took is important for applying to universities or not ,is it a bad point for them or it is not important , How about GRE exam ?

I’m preparing for my DATs. My friend is taking KAPLAN’s GRE prep course, and he says that it is very helpful. My fear is that I pay 00 (Thats how much it costs) and I end up wasting time. They have this "higher score gaurantee" thing where I can retake the course If I feel unready but the truth is, that’s more time out of my life, from my job, from my studies, so I don’t really see it as much of a plus.

SO has anyone had any experience with Major Test Prep Courses (such as SAT, GRE, MCAT ect) and can offer me advice? Should I just stick with buying a prep book and read it or shell out the cash? Mind you, I want to get a very high score.

I’m planning to take the physics gre, and i would like to know what’s the best way to prepare.

I’ve been told by friends who have taken the exam that a sound and thorough understanding of General Physics (from a general physics textbook which covers all areas of physics in general) is more than enough to get a high score in the physics subject tests (700+) and that studying entire texts which focus exclusively on one specialized topic (either quantum.. atomic..or.. relativity, etc..) may actually hurt my preparation.

Of course, a much broader consensus would be preferred…so please help…opinions are welcome!

I’m really nervous
I’ve studied for about two months, yet I still feel woefully unprepared.

I need a high score to get into a Master’s in Nursing accelerated program.

I’ve never been that great at math, so I’ve got a lot of ground to cover. A poor math GRE score kept me from getting into programs in the past, so I’ve got to aim for a high score (preferably 700 or above). Any tips in terms of materials or study techniques? Thanks!

Need to get a really high score.

Guide me on how to prepare for GRE and TOFEL exams so that i can get a very high score enough to join top USA univ.
any references (books), syllubus, and info on how to prepare for it will be very welcome.

So the 3 books that I can’t decided between are of course PR, Kaplan & Barrons and I’ve heard a lot of good and bad things about all of them. I’m not that bad at math already so a book that isn’t too amazing in the math section wouldn’t be too bad. I do need a REALLY high score in the writing and verbal sections for the graduate program that I am going to be applying for. Which book would you recommend for a high writing and verbal score? Also, should I bother buying the CD with the book?

I need to get a high score due to having a low gpa.

ive already worked through the verbal. i also got the kaplan box of flashcards for that part. im now onto the quantitative secitonh. wondering if studying this entire book will be enough to get a high score on the GRE ? Thanks

I was never told this, but I am looking at Stanford University, and it requires a high score on this GRE test that I have never heard of?

I’m supposed to sit for the GRE test soon and I was wondering whether anyone out there who has already taken the exam might have some helpful hints on how to get a high score. I’m doing really well in the quantitative section, it’s the other part that gets me sometimes!! Besides, I’ve checked out some of the universities websites and none of them list what grade they consider for the cut off. Does anyone know what score they accept? Thanks in advance!
