2015 GRE Online Study Groups/Partners

[noemue]

I'm starting this thread in case people want to use it to find a study group/partner.

 

For a few months, I've been searching for a study partner in my area using studypal.co with no luck. Honestly, I think having an online study partner may be a better fit for me.  PM me if you're interested in being online study partners.

 

Here's my study information that I've modified from my studypal.co account:

 

Estimated Test Date: September 2015

Level of Prep Status: Just Starting

Target Score Range: I want to be right at the top

Strength: Verbal

Weakness: Quant

Study Materials: Manhatten Prep, Magoosh, ETS Official Guide. I want to modify a version of a six month study plan that I found on Magoosh.

Preferred communication: Skype, Google Hangouts, Jitsi

Industry: Museums and Institutions/Non-profit education/STEM education

Target Schools: Boston University, Columbia University, Georgetown University, University of Washington - Seattle, MIT Media Lab

A Little About Me: I'm an education specialist at a museum where I get to play with things like 3D printers and laser cutters. I enjoy geocaching, hiking, knitting and reading. I've also worked in the maker movement for a couple of years now.

Looking for: I'm hoping to find a study partner that wants to do a six month study plan using the Manhatten Prep set and/or Magoosh. I also wouldn't mind being part of a study group that meets maybe once every week or so.

 

 

Feel free to copy and modify this in your own post to help you find a study group/partner.

When do you feel you can start?

I’m looking for a study partner as studying lonely is boring.

 

Estimated Test Date: June - July 2015

Level of Prep Status: Just Starting

Target Score Range: I want to be right at the top but I don’t want to stress myself and pile pressure on me. Systematically planned and casual approach is what I am looking at.

Strength: Quant 

Weakness: Verbal

Study Materials: Manhatten Prep, Magoosh, ETS Official Guide. I am following 3 month verbal focused study plan.

Preferred communication: Skype.

A Little About Me: I’m a Chemical Engineering undergraduate freshman. (Having finished my college about 7-8 months ago.) I had a job for a while but I have quit the job to concentrate on my prep. So a full time GRE prepper now.

Looking for: I have appeared for GRE earlier and know better about my strengths and weakness. Scored 89th percentile in quants. Verbal is  troublesome and looking to improve on it. Same time, looking to cash in the quantitative section too. I’m looking for someone so that we can complement on our strength and weakness. Studying alone is monotonous and boring.

Hello everyone,

 

Looking for a study buddy!

Target Score Range: 315-320

Strength: Verbal

Weakness: Quant

Study Materials: Manhatten Prep, Magoosh, ETS Official Guide & the GRE Math Bible

Preferred communication: Skype, Google Hangouts, Email

Industry: Media/ Market Research

Target Schools: NYU, Emory, Michigan, Kellogg - Northwestern, UPenn & Stanford

Looking for: I'm hoping to find a study partner that wants to take the GRE exam by end of the summer or early fall. It can get a little lonely studying alone and with summer approaching it would be great to get a routine going with someone else. Let me know if you want to start a group or know of one I can join. Thanks!
