Hi,

This is my Android application for studying GRE words using spaced repetition. (If you know smart.fm, you know what this is). Check it out here: https://market.andro...ation.vocab.gre

If you have an Android device but not access to the Android Market, you can download it directly from here too http://slideme.org/application/painless-gre

Happy learning :)

I kind of emulated smart.fm. That used to be free, but has now turned to iknow.jp, which lets you have 5 free trials. You can also make your custom lists there.

This is pretty cool. Wish you could add a button that says you got it right or wrong when testing.

Hi Janomaly, there is actually feedback on whether your answer was correct or not. It's the color green or red for multichoice questions, and the red (correcting) text for sentence completion ones. Maybe it was my fault for not making it obvious?

I just was playing freerice.com and I love it too! It froze on me though but it's alright!

Yeah, freerice is great. My only complaint with it is that, at the higher levels, it gives too many nouns, which of course is not useful for the GRE. It does build your scrabble vocabulary though!

Just to add to that, I found an app for the iPhone that has proven to be very helpful. It's called "GRE Vocab" (simple enough) by Brainscape (www.brain-scape.com). its got 9 sets of vocab words, which appear like flash cards. Its also got a serious section on English Word Elements, which teaches root words, prefixes, and suffixes. Just 15-20 mins a day really helped me.
