GucciOluwa: You can start with Gruber (for the basics in quantitative) and work your way up to the Manhattan Books, then finish with the official ETS guides. Good luck with your preparations. |

izzybella007: Careful with IELTS. Some USA schools are rejecting it (albeit you can find it in their criteria). I think there is a covert war going on between British exams and American exams. |

happyday:Hi all, Scholastica16 is right. I was banned when I tried to respond to the above request by happyday. Funny enough the post didn't even contain any weblink. Apologies to anyone that quoted me and I couldn't reply. I do plan to give a detailed description of study plan in earnest. I just got home from a long trip and I am knackered. 1 Like |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Scholastica16: 10:01am On Jan 09, 2017 |
seeker88: Thank you very much man and AMEN. It was exactly 2 months on the 5th of January and when I called ETS they didn't appear any closer to resolving the issue. I volunteered to rewrite and the representative I spoke to offered an explanatory mail I could forward to my prospective schools in lieu. Almost like as if he was discouraging me from rewriting. I don't know what to make of it. I am just hoping and praying I get some feedback before the week runs out. |

Hello guys... Sorry am gonna be a bit backward on this... I hope to gain admission for msc mechanical engineering in USA. Right now, I understand that GRE comes first and having been following the thread, ive downloaded all the books necessary? The ones listed here) but the issues are... When is best to apply for the GRE? When is best for me to write the GRE test? Should I go for paper based or computer based? Which 4 schools do u recommend? (I need visa) Thanks in anticipation. 1 Like |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by aanexplus(m): 11:11am On Jan 10, 2017 |
Daslimo: Hi. Lemme answer the one I couod 1. Apply when you have prepared well. When your simulation tests shows u r ready for the test. Also that's the best time to write is some weeks after you are sure you have prepared well. Lemme give u a scenario. After studying for 2 months, powerprep shows you score of 305, in my opinion u r not ready, study more, when you have >315, register for the exam. Note that this depends on when you r targeting for admission. If it's fall 2018,you have to start preparation soonest. 2. Go for Computer based. You will have your unofficial results immediately and you don't have to kill yourself with unnecessary tension. If you wanna faint, u faint immediately in test hall... Lol 3. Schools depends on your gre score. So, ask that after your gre score. Make sure u register for school finder. It will make more sense. Others will come in |

In as much as I have been visiting this site for sometimes so as to obtain the necessary hints, information and materials for the GRE, i've been more or less a taciturn in the thread. without further ado, i say a gigantic thank you and kudos to all those that have contributed in one way or the other towards the afformentioned cause. My question here is, Must one write the TOEFL exam as well as GRE for securing admission in any of these US schools (UC Berkely, UMichigan, USC and LSU)? secondly, I plan writing the GRE exam in june/july albeit i'll still be in my 500L (OAU). in lieu of this, how does one go about taking the exam and reporting the score as an awaiting B.Sc graduate? The aim is to put in for 2018 fall semester. what is the best approach and chances for an awaiting candidate? I hope this idea of mine is feasible! Thanks fellas. |
