Hi folks, I just recently took a cold GRE attempt and scored a 323 (V154 Q169). This was after a practice mock and some free prep for 3 days. I was also previously working on GMAT.
I want to apply to top mba programs, and hence targeting around a 330+. Any recommendations on how to move forward, how to improve my verbal and get to the score?
Amazing quant score. For verbal, likely you need to do more deliberate practice with the strategies.
See this video and build a study plan to do deliberate work on all of the stages here: So you wanna get a 340, 6.0? (Part 2 - Verbal) - GregMat
Thanks Ganesh, this was a really helpful watch.
I will be spending a lot of time on vocab, building a strong foundation and then work through the strategies. I think I should cover a good set of groups first, before moving to the Pairing strategies right?
No problem, you can start some of the strategies (like support/contrast) while doing the vocab, but for pairing you might need to wait until you know a decent amount of words.
Sure Ganesh, thanks a lot. Since there are ton of strategy videos, what place would you recommend i view it from? the plans or prepswift or some place else?
also any quick suggestions to continue on quant
I am on the vocab mountain group 12. And have watched videos till TC & SC strategy 8.
What should i use for practice for vocab and TC? I am using some of the quizzes for vocab but what about TC.
Big book for TC. You can use Greg’s walkthrough to check your approach
