I learned strategies too but I must admit that I let the clock get to me during the quant section. I memorized many equations as well but I don't think I even got any questions that required them. That doesn't mean I won't memorize them for my second GRE though because I have been warned that you can get completely different content for the next exam. I have heard of Magoosh but chose not to go with that source the first time. Since you both have mentioned it, I will definitely look into it! To improve my math, I'm considering timing myself because time really is an issue for me. I suppose the more comfortable I am with the material the quicker I will be at solving the problems though.

I took the GRE and made a stupid mistake on the verbal section. That hurt my score but I won't make that mistake again. I got a score on the math section that met the minimum for one of the two types of programs I am applying to but is not competitive for the other (Clinical Psyc). I did not do as well on the essay section as I had hoped. I need to improve by .5 and think that is doable. I have been out of university for 8 years so I'm a little rusty, especially when it comes to math. I studied for 6 weeks, using mygretutor.com, Princeton Review book, Kaplan book for vocab, and took practice exams using the ones on the ETS website and the Princeton book. In total I took 7 exams. My GRE was back in the end of July. I plan to take the second one in early November. My questions are: Where can I find more exams to take? What can I do to improve my math section? In general, what could I do differently in terms of studying this time around that will help me get a better score? Thanks!
