Lollyij: You don't have to be discouraged at all. The hard practice questions are not likely to be seen on the test day as Manhattan asserted. However, keep practicing them, solve the problems and check the strategies in which they used in solving the problems,take note of your weak points and review the strategies learnt again. I'm currently on the 4th pack IE geometry. I did algebra, number properties and fractions and my score has improved in the hard practice questions section from 13/20 In the first two to 18/20 in the third after reviewing the Manhattan strategies of providing solutions. Try as much as possible to avoid silly errors too. I hope this helps 1 Like |

temi4fash: This link gives a comprehensive list of schools offering your course. I used it to arrive at sensible schools for my own course taking into consideration tuition, toefl/gre requirements and so on. http://www.findengineeringschools.org/Search/Majors/electrical.htm jlakesideo: You can not cover all the materials on test preparation. Manhattan online test that I know requires you to spend money. Work with PowerPrep after reading through the study materials (ETS, PrincetonRev, NovaMaths, manhattan 5lb), that's MY plan. 1 Like |

temi4fash:Congrats on your scores. University of Minnesota would be too ambitious for your profile. Please don't waste that application fee. Do some more research on average ranked schools. You will surely find one or more that match your interests. |

Beautiful Saturday morning it is... My TOEFL test score just came in. R28 L26 S26 W26 Total 106 All the preparation paid off. Relieved.... I used roughly 10days, How I achieved my score - Reading: This was straight forward, only got myself acquainted with what I was expecting on test day. Got question answering and time saving tips from Notefull videos on youtube. Previous knowledge of secondary school comprehension passage came into play. Listening: Was also straight forward, Used ETS official test prep materials 3 and 4 (these had audio embedded in the booklet) + Notefull videos. Speaking: Used majorly Notefull videos for the Speaking part. Other materials were dribbling me, Notefull had a defined formular. Writing: Used Kaplan GRE booklet that taught about grammar (before the Issue and Argument tasks). Kaplan TOEFL showed me examples of what Writing answers looked like. Helped alot. Here, Notefull and Cambridge dey dribble me. #MoneyCannotWaste 6 Likes 1 Share |

I really don't know much about those online practice tests yet. I make use of the practice tests at the end/beginning of each book for now. I suggest you lookup kaomanfen.com suggested by SirRiddy, I saw some practice tests there. (Use Google chrome browser so you can translate to English seamlessly). jlakesideo: |

baum1:Thank you. But I know good GPAs in themselves are nothing if other parts of app are rubbish. BSc Pet Eng, MSc Mat Eng. Yes I wrote GRE but I am not happy with my scores, so I am rewriting. I am writing TOEFL after the GRE. Yes I am fixed on North America now. For Europe, I am only interested in UK. Tried but no funding. 3 Likes |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by happyday: 5:15pm On Sep 25, 2016 |
temi4fash:Good scores. Yeah, unto the next phase. But I must ask, must it be Minnesota? Or do you plan staying with the family friend for the duration of your program. Expand your choices. I don't think location should be a primary yardstick for school selection. I've an idea though. To start with, send an email to the graduate program co-ordinator of Electrical Engr at UMinn Twin Cities. Tell him/her a brief profile (Your school, GPA and experience, briefly), pick a prof whose research interest you, and highlight how you plan to contribute to his research using your experiences. Add your GRE scores (with the score report, if available). DON'T mention funding or money. Ask what other things you need to submit to start applying. Be enthusiastic and don't whine over the GRE score, or anything. Proof-read the mail, but don't expect a reply. Wait for a few days, then send a gentle reminder alongside the original email, while attaching your Statement of Purpose and transcripts. Let's see what happens. All the best. 5 Likes |
