amaddgjs Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 I have studied some of the GRE Book for Dummies. They have two practice tests at the end. Are they a real indication of what the exam is like? How do they compare to the real thing? Here is a link for the book so you can download it and see: http://www.2shared.com/file/10533688/5a07b8ee/2D-ex.html

That's the best indication of what a real test is like. Any non-computer based test will naturally not be as accurate as the real GRE, but I found that even the CDs from Barrons were innaccurate for the quant section (I ended up with more than 150 higher on the real test than Barron's computer tests).
amaddgjs Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 I`m having problems with the GRE Powerprep. I have windows vista and its not working properly. I was just asking if the real GRE questions are of the same difficulty or if the book`s questions are easier. Are they of the same difficulty?

Go to this place http://www.ets.org/gre/general/prepare/powerprep/index.html and look at the third question, it explains how to run it on Vista. Second, http://www.ets.org/Media/Tests/GRE/pdf/011499.GRE.pdf this is official stuff, do you think those are like your questions? Here are more http://www.ets.org/gre/general/prepare/sample_questions/index.html, though they do not adapt based on your right and wrong answers. Those are the way of gauging what the questions are like: they're real questions.
