I am thinking of buying the entire set package (of 8 books I think), and the advanced index cards (this is because I already have Essential GRE vocab by Princeton and Barrons GRE 800 Essential Words) from "Manhatten GRE prep ( Read more... )

Hello, I saw something similar to this in the memories but no real answer... I plan on taking the GREs as soon as possible (Aug/Sept) so that I can focus on other aspects of my applications, but do I need to state which schools to send my scores to on test day? Will it cost me extra if I wait to send my scores at a later date? I can't seem to find ( Read more... )

I'm looking at the Princeton Review book site and am considering just buying a used version of PR  off of amazon or half.com. How important/helpful were the DVDs? The website just says it has some useful tutorials, but I had a hard time watching the guy talk about the books: http ( Read more... )

I understand that the GRE's--particularly the QV section--can be a huge stumbling block for many of us especially those of you who are going into utterly non-math-related fields, and haven't taken a math class in 5 years (and I solidly fit this category as well).

For those of you who are struggling, consider this: what is the QV section really ( Read more... )

So, it's official -- if you read the GRE website, you'll notice that the GRE now has two new question types in addition to the question types that were presented previously. Has anybody taken the GRE in the last couple of days? How are the new questions like? Can somebody confirm.

I've started using number2.com and mygretutor.com, and on ( Read more... )
