jayem Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hey all, Can you recommend the most efficient way to memorize vocabulary words? I have been going through all of the word lists from princeton review, kaplan, etc. Sometimes I use flashcards, sometimes I use quizlet, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kleene Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Use lists of prefixes, roots, suffixes, common mistakes, similar words, etc. A lot of these lists are available online, sometimes as appendix in prep books. Learning vocab this way is much more efficient than just learn the words by themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeakPerformance Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I agree with Kleene that it is much more efficient to study roots, prefixes and word groupings than individual words. The links below contain some lists of common roots/prefixes helpful for the GRE. http://www.thegreonline.com/2013/12/gre-verbal-prefixes-and-suffixes.html http://www.thegreonline.com/2014_01_01_archive.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
