tldr; How can I prepare myself for my second attempt of GRE, in verbal, of questions having difficulty level of “3”, “4” and “5”??
Hi folks! 3 weeks ago I gave my GRE and i got a score of 167Q + 146V. I wasn’t expecting such poor performance in verbal (compared to my performance in mocks). I believe that I can do better in verbal which is why I am thinking of trying for second attempt.
When I analysed my score I found that in section_A of verbal I got 1/20, while in section_B of verbal I got 17/20. I am a little confused on seeing such great variance in both the sections of verbal.
I suspect 2 things.
- Section 7 which is last section of exam was of verbal (3 verbal, 2 quant) and I was pretty much exhausted till then. I suspect this was counted towards section_A.
- In my score result analysis I found that section_A had questions from difficulty level “3”, “4”, “5” while section_B had questions from difficulty level “1”, “2”, “3” and couple of “4”. Thus I conclude that while I am able to solve easy questions, I am unable to solve hard questions with under stress+exhaustion.
So, how can I prepare myself for my second attempt of GRE, in verbal, of questions having difficulty level of “3”, “4” and “5”??
