Anyone have any suggestions on books or other test prep materials to use?
I've taken it before, and got a 1200. Not a bad score, but not real great either. So I'm looking to do better this time.
Last time I used the Princeton Review Cracking the GRE and that worked well for reviewing the quantitative but I got kinda sunk on the verbal (640 Q, 560 V). Part of the problem is all the obscure words you have to know, but I have a Kaplan GRE vocab word set thing that I'm going to peruse over and hopefully that will help me out. But I'd like to do much better in quantitative (since I feel I can control my performance there much better than I can in the verbal section) so I'm looking for a better book to help me out.
Also, has the GRE changed yet? It's been 2 years since I last took it and they were talking about changing it but I don't know if they ever did.
