jujubea Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 So, my practice test scores have been getting marginally lower over the three months I've been studying for the GRE, and it's just bumming me out endlessly. I almost wanted to give up during the last quant section during the last practice test. I'm retaking the actual test at the end of this week. What would the smart folks on here recommend? (You know who you are! I see your beautiful upper 160's scores!) Should I do anymore practice tests with 5 days to go before the real one? Or just keep my head in the books? I have a real problem with stamina I've noticed, too - I get really tired after about the third section, and it gets noticeably harder to focus. Is it worth working on my stamina in these past five days by taking more practice tests? I'm worried I risk burning out my brain if I take any more, or take too many. Otherwise, I can keep doing practice questions - I have a whole slew of them via Kaplan's premier software and books. What would any of you recommend?
timberlake Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 My practice scores got significantly lower the week before the test ( lower than my original GRE scores), which gave me severe anxiety about taking the test. I took it yesterday and my scores actually went up!
jujubea Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Yay! Gives me hope! Thanks timberlake!!!
