Hello friends, Here is a breakdown of my Powerprep II practice tests: TEST 1 Verbal 1: 12/20 Verbal 2: 10/20 Quants 1: 19/20 Quants 2: 16/20 V: 153/170 Q: 163/170 COMBINED: 316/340 TEST 2 Verbal 1: 14/20 Verbal 2: 09/20 Quants 1: 18/20 Quants 2: 15/20 V: 157/170 Q: 161/170 COMBINED: 318/340 AVERAGE P1+P2 SCORES: V:155/160; Q:162/170 I need useful suggestions on how to hit 320+ on the D-day (August 6th). I was unable to hit 320 in the Practice Set in the Official set. My combined score was 313. I have reviewed the answers and would do the 2nd practice set tomorrow. I observed the Powerprep algorithmn for inscrutable particularly for the Quants section. Haven scored 35/40 and 34/40 in the first and second tests respectively, I was expecting a scaled score in the range of 164-166. Please can someone suggest to me the reason for the lower scores on my quants. From what I've read on Quora, the second Powerprep score mirrors the final score closely while the average of the 2 tests varies from the final scores by +/-3points. Although, these are just postulations as the final hurdle might involve some stroke of luck and confidence on the part of the test-taker. I eagerly your suggestions and inputs folks! 3 Likes 1 Share |

pronto543:IMO, try to analyse the topics where you might have flunked and try to read up and understand those topics. Since there are 7 days left, my advise is to test new waters by practicing, practicing and practicing and learning new topics and tricks. Hopefully this should raise you to your targeted score of >320 |

Hello guys! Please do I have a chance of getting admits into a Masters program in tier 2 schools wit a low CGPA of 2.37. Around 2.5/4 US scale. Please someone should boost my morale. Looking at Energy Engineering. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Olalekank(m): 7:31am On Jul 31, 2018 |
kfrosh:Anything is possible. There are schools that accept your CGPA. You can boost your profile with other documents like the SOP (where you can explain the reason for the supposedly low CGPA), LOR, research experience, high GRE and TOEFL scores. These would do a great job in improving your chances of getting admitted amongst other applicants. |

eastafro: Canadian schools are great as well. "Cheaper" but with far less chance of funding. Don't know much about them any more because few people I know there did advanced diplomas and got jobs right after. Cheers. 1 Like |

pronto543: The diagnostics report always states questions of easy, medium and hard difficulty levels. Based on this, hard questions have a greater weight on the final weighted score. And the 2nd batch of Qs always have more harder questions than the first based on good first performances so that could skew the score favourably if one does well in them. For e.g, scoring 18 in the first and 18 in the second can give one a weighted score of 166-167 in the Q if the hard questions were part of the 18 raw scores got. Whereas someone else can get 20 and 16 (2nd) and get a scaled score of 163-165 because they got only one of the hard questions and flunked the remainder 4. It is a function of getting those difficult questions right summarily. As per your preparations, you are doing well. Just forget the aspects you always get right and solve more questions related to the areas you seem to make mistakes in. Some people take inventory of their mistakes and if they see that they have missed more than one question on the said topic like "Probability", they go back to solve a ton of questions on the topic just to become more accurate. 1 Like |

Hi everyone, nice work on this thread. I've been following this thread faithfully and I'm not done yet. I just really need answers to some questions, I'm pleading that the good people on this thread assist me. 1.pls what's the major difference between spring and fall? I already googled it, I just need clarification. 2. Who knows the University of Tulsa, Oklahoma please, they said they accept admission on a rolling basis, can anyone help me understand the meaning of the rolling basis pls? 3. I'm a biochemistry graduate, Cgpa- 4.69, Ielts-7.0 Preparing to take the Gre in October, What are my chances of funding and please, please, I won't mind school suggestions too. Thanks in anticipation.. Scholastica sir, sir Riddy, Quoran, time2smile and everyone else, please... |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Quoran: 3:01pm On Aug 01, 2018 |
1. SPRING - January Admission ; FALL - August Admission 2. They accept applications at anytime of the year. No deadlines. From my own observations, schools with such rolling applications have limited funding. I may be wrong though. Check the faculty members webpages and the graduate admissions page also. 3. Your chances are bright. Start your research early. Know what your target schools want. Do well on the GRE. Read this thread thoroughly ( I know you have started that already!) I really cannot suggest schools to you because Biochemistry it is not my area of interest. All the best. mayort12: |

I've deferred my WVU admission till Fall 2019, and God willing, I'd be applying to at least 2 other schools for Fall 2019... Contemplating retaking the GRE as well (crazy work schedule)...
