Do you mind me asking what resources you used to study? I was using Magoosh, but I noted there were several kinds of problems on the GRE concerning the quantitative portion that it did not include - it seems like an incomplete tool. Also anything that can help me disect how the test is set up would be immensely helpful. I haven't begun jumping into studying for a restest yet since I'm doing some other things at the moment, but I'll be revisiting this thread again down the road. I used Cracking the GRE with 4 Practice Tests, 2016 Edition (Graduate School Test Preparation) and the Manhattan review flash cards. I also borrowed one of my friend's Manhattan review material for a bit and found it very helpful. CornUltimatum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoh197 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I also used Barron's 6 GRE practice test book. It was extremely similar to the actual GRE. I felt like it prepared me pretty well. Was pretty cheap, like $12. A good thing to add to your arsenal in my opinion. CornUltimatum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CornUltimatum Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Relevant to earlier discussion concerning usage of GRE schools and predicting graduate sucess is this article I recently came across: http://www.nature.com/naturejobs/science/articles/10.1038/nj7504-303a "A standard test for admission to graduate school misses potential winners, say Casey Miller and Keivan Stassun." It's worth a read! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
