I prepped for the quantitative portion (3 months of Khan academny and using Cliff Notes math review) because I have slept through mathmatics since middle school. I crammed in studying between my two part time jobs (60-80 hrs/week) and school and ended up with a stunningly "average-ish" score of 151/170. In all fairness, had I not studied I probably would have totally failed that portion of the test. I totally winged the verbal and writing portion with no prep or studying whatsoever and got 166/170 and 5.0/6.0 respectively. Overall I may re-take the GRE to get a higher score (I was aiming for a math score closer to 155-160) but for the fields I'm going into verbal and writing scores are more heavily weighed than math, and I think the ones I currently have are respectable.
