  1. I recently took the GRE and scored 156Q/164V/5.0AW. Thegradcafe gave me great advice on how to study and thus I wanted to contribute to the body of knowledge based on my experience. I used three online resources: 1) Magoosh; 2) Empower GRE; 3) Manhattan GRE online tests. Best Study Guide: Empower GRE 2 Month Plan Quantitative: Empower GRE Verbal: Magoosh Analytic Writing: Empower GRE (format) & Magoosh (content) Most realistic tests: Manhattan GRE (my scores range over six tests were 152-156) Other Resources: The New Yorker, Scientific American, Vocabulary.com, and Magoosh Phone Apps My final advice is learning to pace yourself on the real exam. If pacing is something you struggle with, as I do, I found it extremely helpful to take all practice exams under actual time restrictions. Follow the Empower GRE study guide and supplement the verbal sections with Magoosh. The AW section I found to be the easiest, you essentially have a format you follow regardless of what prompt you get. Make sure to bring food, water, and do a quick workout on your given time breaks. Have fun destroying this exam, I sure did. I will be happy to provide any additional recommendations feel free to PM me.
