I just wanted to post because I found this thread really helpful when preparing for the GRE, which I took today.
I focussed on Math, because I hadn't covered any of that stuff in well over ten years. And it was hard. Thank god for Magoosh. Those video Math lessons were well worth the money.
Powerprep One: V 170 Q 167
Powerprep Two: V 169 Q 166
Magoosh: V 161-166 Q 158 -163 (But this was also while I was learning so I'm not sure it's an accurate gauge.
Manhattan: (I only really did the math)
1: 160
2: 161
3: 161
4: 155 (Don't do practice exams at midnight)
5: 160
6 Q: 163
Today's GRE (2/9/2019) V 169 Q 165 Still waiting on analytical writing.
I generally found Manhattan and Magoosh harder than the ETS materials.
My question was whether other people had the same experience as me that the GRE, especially the Quant, didn't quite play out as other people had described. I had 2 quant parts. The first quant part I felt was really challenging, but it obviously wasn't an experimental, but it felt much harder than medium. I was convinced that I would have to repeat, particularly when the second quant part came out as being easy. I haven't got the break down of the scores and would be keen to know. Obviously, I think under stress our perception of our performance is also different. But it wasn't what I was expecting ...
