The GRE: One Day atta Time

Improvement

September 2, 2009 at 1:54 pm (GRE Study Schedule) (gre, practice exams, quantitative comparisons, score, vocabulary)

My scores aren’t what I’d like them to be just yet, but I definitely saw an improvement in this practice exam in comparison to the last.

On the last practice exam:

Quantitative 370 – 9% percentile

Verbal 450 – 40% percentile

This exam:

Quantitative 470 – 22% percentile

Verbal 500 – 55% percentile

I actually struggled more on the reading comprehension this time around. The first essay was virtually impossible for my brain to comprehend. It was something about seismic waves. That’s really all I can tell you.

In math I’m still struggling with some concepts, especially under a time crunch.

Also, my endurance for sitting in front of a computer for 3 hours could use some improvement as well.

I have no time to waste and I’m not going to mess around these next few weeks. I will raise my score by another couple hundred points. Watch me.
