Dear Every one,

Hi

I took V:147; Q:158; / Wr:3.5 in GRE  and want to retake the exam in 8 months. 
Which kind of materials is useful for taking 160 plus in Verbal?

Thanks

Use ETS-written material. And supplement with GMAT RC and CR (critical reasoning). Read widely and study vocab, too.

Don’t use any other companies’ material.

Why not?

Other companies can’t duplicate the nuances, complexities, and fairness of authentic ETS GRE verbal questions, because their mandate is to sell as many books / courses as possible. They’re focused on quantity, not quality.

And this is coming from a guy who has written verbal questions for Barron’s several years ago. I will admit there is no way I (or imo ANY other third-party verbal material author) have the time, resources, or incentive to accurately duplicate the feel of ETS questions.

I know you didn’t ask why, but there you have it.
