adetola007:Bros that is a good score especially with that GPA. Do send an email to the grad coordinator of your program. Also try to contact the professors you would like to work with. Please do not cold email all the professors in the department, this can be annoying to some of them. Cheer up Bro! 1 Like |

iCool:Congrats iCool. Did you mention what your V score was? I don't think the Q is bad. Just target the right schools. Meanwhile, what the hell My centre is in ph. I cannot handle noise at all when I am trying to concentrate, let alone when trying to decipher those hellish RCs. When I wrote the first time in August, they were on holidays. So everywhere was quiet. I am super nervous! |

Glowrie22:I am so sorry about your Q score. But your V is super!!!! Congrats. I wish I could have that. What is your next step? |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by iCool(m): 8:05pm On Oct 13, 2016 |
drhopeful: Thanks. I have already pruned my choice of schools, a 159 might hurt my profile for my current selection. The 'Light' noise comes every 30mins I guess, after they are done with each class. It is not something to worry about, just have it in mind that it will happen and it lasts for a few minutes. |

Good-day, Please am a first class student in botany, what are my chances of getting a scholarship in USA with a good GRE score and I also need good schools to apply to. Thanks in advance. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by ChemEngr01: 9:33pm On Oct 13, 2016 |
Gunbiz:Honestly, all the materials you need have been mentioned on this thread. For quant, I used Nova primarily and ran through most of the other books. I used Princeton review, official guide and magoosh videos for verbal. Magoosh videos were very helpful for TC and SE. |

Please. I am a distinction graduate of a polytechnic. I will like to ask my questions as thus: 1. What school will take my HND cert. for masters 2. Taking GRE exam, how many years can I use it for admission. Here I mean if I take the exam this year, and I was not admitted this year, can I still use next year and how many more years Thanks in anticipation 1 Like |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by djPyper: 11:36pm On Oct 13, 2016 |
hey guyz, for the benefit of those considering wether to write the gre paper based or IBT, i've written both and the basic differences are as follows: 1) with the paper based theres no extra experimental section, just 2 quant and 2 verbal sections of 25 questions each. 2) with the ibt, if you do well on one section the next is very hard, but with paper the questions are of medium difficulty with just a few hard ones. so the major pros of IBT are that you get to see ur scores immediately and also its easier to format ur essays as opposed to using eraser to correct mistakes, I wrote the IBT about two years ago and scored poorly , so I decided to try the paper test this year though my scores are not yet out, im confident I did very well cos the two sections were easy, and i was more comfortable and faster working on paper as opposed to staring at a computer screen. i'll return to to give my testimony when my scores are out. I wish us all success. 2 Likes |

ChemEngr01: does dat mean u knew ur vocab thru magoosh? |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by ChemEngr01: 7:36am On Oct 14, 2016 |
Gunbiz:I used Barron's top 800 words. Please note that knowing 'big words' is not enough; context is equally important, which is where magoosh videos will help u. |

Writing mine next Thurs in PH. I'm quite scared oo, just took my leave from work few days before my test so as to concentrate more in d test prep, but surprisingly discovered that there are so many things that I'd need to cover for d test, and I ain't got enough time to cover these again. I refuse to loose my confidence because of this... Please guys that wrote theirs 2days back. Did u practice with d 2 powerprep tests before ur exam? And please can u share how ur scores in those 2 powerprep tests compare to ur real test score?? Cc: ChemEngr01, iCool, Glowrie22, adetola007. Thanks in anticipation of ur swift response. God's favour to us writing next week... 1 Like |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by iCool(m): 3:58pm On Oct 14, 2016 |
Powerprep gives an idea of what will be tested on exam day. Exam is simply an application of 'light' reasoning. Normal maths you have been practising all along but you need to reason out how to go about finding a solution. Reason out what method to use. If you don't reason out fast enough a technique to employ to solve a question, you waste valuable time. Doing the calculation (which most times doesn't require a calculator) is fast. |
