hopeful93 Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 I have had trouble getting into grad school. I have a 3.4 undergraduate and GRE score of 146 math and 138 verbal 4.0 writing. I am looking for online programs. I am also planning to retake my GRE in October. Does anybody have any suggestions to boost my GRE score or online programs that dont require a GRE?
Afternoonprogram Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Have you used Magoosh? It was really helpful for the Math and they have free flashcards with vocabulary words -it's good to practice them when your waiting in line. Have you thought about a tutor? Good Luck.
2bridges Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 I second Magoosh. Download their free vocabulary and math app and practice whenever you have a free moment. I raised my verbal score by 5 points in less than a month by studying their flashcards. Also try reading sophisticated newspapers like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Reuters. Often their vocabulary is in sync with the GRE. SpeechGal1234 1
speechfan222 Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 The ASHA website provides a PDF of all programs offering a Masters and PhD in Speech Pathology. It also includes programs with distance education (online) programs as well. http://www.asha.org/uploadedFiles/CAAAccreditedPrograms.pdf I hope this helps!! Let me know if you have other questions.
hopeful93 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Posted July 17, 2017 Sorry everybody I was out of town. All of your suggestions help alot. I have been hesitant towards the magoosh app because I was afraid to study the material and nothing be on the GRE. I will download the app now. Also thanks for the ASHA website suggestion.
Crimson Wife Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Manhattan Prep 5 Lb. book of practice problems. I used that plus the free Magoosh app to prep the verbal (I took the GRE the same semester as I was taking A&P so I decided to focus exclusively on the verbal portion). Very pleased with how well those 2 things prepared me for the GRE.

You won't run into the EXACT questions you practice, but you will certainly run into the same types of questions and/or concepts. Studying will help to practice the test-taking skills and strategies specific to the GRE, and get in the mode of thinking critically on the tests. I second loving Magoosh. I would really suggest taking the time to study, especially to kick up that verbal score. It's unpleasant but worth it!
