I am not very good at vocabulary. I was wondering what is the best to prepare. Does anyone have a common list of roots or words they memorized they helped them? Thanks Any suggestions would be helpful

trying to learn all the vocab that may be on the pcat would be impossible. there are billions of words, and they can pick any words that they so choose. I think the best strategy is learning roots, prefixes, suffixes, etc. the Kaplan book doesn't have any of these in it. I used one my old SAT books (it was by Barron's and had a white cover) that has a list of roots/suffixes/prefixes and what they mean. I would go to a bookstore and look at PCAT books/GRE books/SAT books/MCAT books and just look for one that has a good list of things like that.
