Kaplan and Princeton Review sell prep books.  Buy one, and take the practice tests.

A few weeks of studying a couple hours a day should be enough to prepare.  Buy Princeton Review's book on the SAT or if you can afford it (it costs about $1000) take their class ... it's well worth it.  The book is good too though.  I did the class for the SAT and did well and used the book for the GRE and did well on that also.

Studying vocab will help you with 2/3 of the verbal, but what you need more is techniques for managing unfamiliar vocabulary - you are GUARANTEED to see words you don't know; the test is your reaction to the situation. If you can, invest in a full-length course. If not, look into a weekend express course, or an online course. Practicing with books is somewhat useful, but since the test is computerized, the most beneficial practice is online.\nFinally, check out your deadlines. The GRE is changing in September to include, among other major changes, less vocabulary - you may do better on the new version, if that's an option for you.\n\nRegardless, don't give up!

The GRE (Graduate Record Exam) is a standardized test much like the SAT. You needed the SAT (or ACT) scores for college, now you might be considering a graduate program that requires this exam. It is structured very much like the SAT with a verbal, math, and writing section. When I took it, I remember being told that the math was easier than SAT math, but that the verbal was more difficult. I don't know if this is still true;\n\nI believe anyone is eligible to take it, but before you shell out a good chunk of change to take it, find out if you actually need to take it. Talk to your professors, advisors, and read the literature for graduate programs you are interested in. Also visit the ETS (Educational Testing Services) Website at www.ets.org, you can also type in www.gre.org.\n\nIf you are a glutton for punishment and just want to take it for fun, then by all means don't let me stop you.

Yes it is possible. Many of my students of GRE got more than 1500 by the preparation of only 25 working days. But it depends on your existing level. In normal case it need 2 month to prepare. Your required score demand 16 hours a day for three months extensive preparation (for above average in logics and reasoning minded student).\nFor more details you should visit  http://www.admissionglobal.com  ,  http://www.catzone.org  , http://www.entrytest.com and download preparation material as well.

GRE gives scores 200-800 for the General Test.  Study, Study, Study.  Oh, my advice would be to freshen up on your vocabulary skills.  That's what I'm doing.  Good Luck!!!

GRE is a exam for admission tests at masters level in universities for engineering etc. GMAT is for masters degrees in business programs, TOEFL is required by many schools in US from foreign students for their English competency. You have to contact a University here, send your educational records, the university will tell you what test to take for admission in their program. You take the test there in India, for location and fees find that out locally or the US university will help you too. Get an Indian passport from there. Apply at the US embassy there for Student visa. Take the I-20, the admission approval papers from US university to US Embassy there to apply for the student visa. To prepare for the TOEFL and other exams buy the books and tapes/Cd's etc. to prepare. Good luck

The test is the hardest thing I have ever done.  Prior to becoming a nurse, I was in the mental health field.  I took the GRE and breezed through it with and 1850 composite.  Hoever, I barely sqeeked by the NCLEX-RN.  However, I did not take a prep class, just good old fasioned learning.  There is no real way to prepare for it.  Just know everything.  Sorry.  Good luck

I suggest getting one of the GRE study guides from Princeton Review, Kaplan, etc.  Those things give you strategies for working with the type of questions you will have on the GRE.  They stress how to score points on the exam, how it is structured, how to use the answer choices, etc.  It won't make you an better at math, but it can prepare you for the exam (which is presumably what you are after).  Give yourself enough time to read the texts and get practice and even time to ask someone for some help on some of the types of problems.

GRE- Graduate Record Examination. This is the test you need to pass if you want to go to graduate school. Although, some majors (law, medicine, business) have specialized graduate entrance school exams, this is the general test that you take if you're not going into a specialized area. \n\nSAT- Scholastic Aptitude Test. This is the college entrance exams. It's important because it can determine which schools will except you. Many schools have a predetermined score that applicants must score as a minimum in order to gain admission. The other option is the ACT but many schools still require the SAT.\n\nTOEFL- Test of English as a Foreign Language. This test is required of any international student seeking to gain admission to a U.S. university. It tests a students ability to speak and understand written and spoken English. If an International student can not pass this test, it is unlikely that he will be admitted to the university.

What helped me a lot was Kaplan's GRE Exam book. It prepared me for the whole exam. In the back it has word lists, prefix/suffix lists, top GRE word lists, synonym lists, etc. Studying these lists and doing the practice exams in the book and on the CD helped me the most. Make flash cards using the lists and study hard!\n\nI studied the book for about 3 months prior to the exam and passed with a 570 verbal and 660 quantitative, 5.0 on the essay part. I highly recommend the book and it's not too expensive. Around $20 or $25 if i remember correctly.

I took the GRE a little over a year ago.    I don't know if you took the SAT to get to undergrad, but the GRE is a bit different because of the format in which it's administered now.  They now ask you to go to a testing center and take the test on the computer.  It's a strange testing environment; it doesn't have the same sort of communal in-it-together atmosphere that the SAT or the LSAT have.  You're in a booth with scrap paper and a pencil. People watch you over video and it's self timed.\n\nDon't underestimate the environment/computerized test portion's influence on your scores.  You'll have to learn to test-take differently -- you can't underline, you can't draw diagrams on the side, you can't take one question and return to it.  You have to progress linearly.  You answer one question, they evaluate how you did and then offer the next question based on how they've calibrated your score from your previous answer.\n\nThis was fine for the writing portion.  I find that I'm accustomed to writing on the computer.  However, it was much harder for me to get used to the multiple choice on the computer format.\n\nOther than that, the content is not far different from SATs.  If you're like me, you'll have to brush up on math.   The verbal part is still a lot of reading comp and analogies.\n\nI always recommend studying, even if you are a strong standardized test taker.  These tests need practice.  Practice *on the computer*!
