Hello everyone. Special greetings my gurus and egbons in the house. I have been thinking about applying to graduate schools and writing gre for a while now. i have basically just been researching schools and not paying enough time to the actual test prep, i felt i could just do a few weeks rush-rush prep and ace it. Of course that quickly changed when i started going through this thread. I am looking at fall 2018 admissions, already have a list of schools and all that. As advised on earlier pages of this thread, i took the powerprep test today, i haven't been preparing for GRE before, i just wanted to get a feel for the test. V 161 Q140 I obviously need a lot of work on my quantitative aspect. I only have about 6 weeks to prepare. I have gone through the thread top to bottom(took me a week and several sleepless nights). It was totally worth it, the wealth of information here is just amazing. I have downloaded some of the materials and have links to others. Here's my important question, what materials can i use to prep for these 6 weeks to strengthen my quantitative aspect? I know this question has been asked over and over in many different formats, but i would greatly appreciate a response to mine too. 2 Likes |

HOYINDARMORLAR: ETS guide. Study it carefully and attempt the examples and exercises. You can't go wrong doing this. Magoosh Q Videos. Watch as many as you can actively. Pause it, attempt to solve it first then play the video to see their approach and solution. Mahanttan exercises if you have time after doing above. Great V score above. What is your discipline? Your V might count more depending on your discipline. 1 Like |

HOYINDARMORLAR: Then that Q must go up. Pace yourself well. Solve questions you are very sure to get first and foremost and only attempt the harder ones after. Employ tact; there are always 4 options. Estimate in your head what the answer can be by common sense and then eliminate the totally crazy options. The ETS testmakers set questions this way all the time. When you are in the 2nd section (which would be harder if you did well in the first) flip the script at the quantity comparison questions. If you easily prove that Qty A is bigger than B, go for B. LOL. If they easily look the same, the answer will definitely will not be C. Don't make assumptions. If you need any detail to solve the question just mark D and move on. Caveat: I am giving quick fix methods that are not fool proof. 3 Likes |

HOYINDARMORLAR: TBH, will be very tough getting in an MFE with 3.03/5.00. It will be a very heavy lift, you will have to blow your Quant out of the water. What school are you looking at for the MFE? |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by gokuu(m): 2:54pm On Sep 12, 2017 |
temmitats:a 4, so annoying. But it my programs really do not care about it so I guess its okay. |

Hello my people, I've been off on this platform for some days now in order to look for a school that can accommodate my CGPA of 3.10/5.0 (2.96/4.0) for MS/PhD in Biological Science and I have identified Southern Illiniois University (SIU). I contacted the Head of Department and he informed me that my CGPA will enter MS program while 3.0 is needed for PhD. I queried further if there is possibility of combining my BSc and UK MSc with five publications for PhD admission, am still expecting his reply. Now, I am stucked with what to read for GRE. I have all GRE materials (Magoosh, Gruber, ETS own etc), though some years back edition, which one is advisable to use to prepare for GRE as I intend to take it latest first or second week of November? If anyone have latest edition, that will really be helpful. If anyone know anything about SIU, I won't mind having some gist about the school. Thanks guys |
