How should I study for the GRE?
818669
I got the Princeton Review book, Cracking the GRE, which has an online tutorial CD with practice exams.  In general, I found:\n\n1)  The verbal questions were very similar to the exam, but reading passages were longer and more difficult.\n\n2)  The essays you have to write are very stylized - in other words, they ask you to write in a way that you'll pretty much only use for the GRE.  There are some tricks and I'd advise reading the essay section of the book very carefully\n\n3)  Forget the easy and medium math sections.  Only the "hard" math section of the book had the type of problems the test had.  Also, in the word problems, the book would have a picture of the figure (in problems where you're finding the diagonal, area, whatever), but the test usually gave a description only, and I had to figure it out on my own, which took A LOT more time.\n\n4)  The single most effective way to raise your verbal score is to study vocabulary.  The book I mentioned above has a GREAT list.  \n\nGood luck!

The GRE is for people who wish to pursue a graduate degree, and includes many disciplines.  It is similar to the ACT/SAT for undergraduate college, but harder.  There are alternative specialized tests for certain disciplines like law , masters in business, and medical school.

Study. Know your stuff. Take notes well. Study. Get a study group. While you can have your book there, you need to know where everything is or you'll take up the whole time.\n\nGood luck!

Take it one day at a time. \n\nTry not to fall behind. Keep up with your reading and take\ngood notes.\n\nMaybe form a study group. Compare notes with each other and offer encouragement.\n\nMy best friend is a nurse. The hardest part for her was learning the drugs. She had note cards she had to memorize. \n\nDon't be afraid to ask for help. You have trouble with anatomy or another  class, seek out a tutor before you get too far behind. \n\nTake advantage of any classes or sessions that offer help- like a class on how to study for science, etc. or, if the prof offers help. Go. Make your self known. It doesn't hurt to let the prof know you are interested in doing better. \n\nGood luck. You have chosen a very worthy profession.

Learn the prefixes and suffixes -- this will help you weed out incorrect answers on the test as well as choose correct answers.\n\nAlso, I always found it useful to post short lists of words I needed to memorize (both for the GRE and when studying a foreign language) over the sinks in the kitchen and bathroom -- that way I can review when I brush my teeth and do the dishes.  \n\nFlash cards also work wonders.  I like to color-code mine.  You could do yours by parts-of-speech or into groups of words with similar meanings.   That way if you come across a word and don't remember the definition, you might remember the color of its flash card and be able to guess.\n\nGood luck!

Preparation depends on what kind of graduate program you want to enter. I don't know of a single elite university that takes the general GRE seriously -- they only want to see you break 500 in each section.\n\nI took the GRE cold. I prepped for 3 days using a Princeton Review GRE book I bought at Barnes & Noble http://www.bn.com and scored 1980 on my first and only attempt.\n\nthe only thing I really needed to practice was using my computer to take the test. i was accustomed to paper exams, so CBE was different for me.\n\nIf your vocab is weak, then by all means get a friend to hlep you with a wordlist. http://www.m-w.com has a Word of the Day column. very good practice!\n\nAnd if you are taking a subject exam like bio, chem, physics, etc, then good luck. it's those tests that require studying because they're so comprehensive.

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.

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.

You should definitely buy the 2007 edition as there are changes to the GRE this year.  I know for a fact that they are changing how tests are done (there is only one test at a set time per day as opposed to the current random questions from the test bank).  They are also playing around with the analytical sections but I'm not sure if that has changed yet.\n\nAs for me, I used Kaplan and did well.  I don't think the brand matters as much.  They essentially say the same thing; you just have to find the one that works with your personality.

Make a schedule to prepare yourself.  Make sure you schedule time off and a bit of relaxation as well.  Ensure you know the topic (or all the topics) deeply as well as superficially.  Look up mind-mapping.  The night before each exam, be sure to get enough sleep, and wake up early enough to easily arrive at the examination on time, having eaten enough breakfast/lunch to get you through the exam.\n\nGood luck!
