GRE
The GRE is a standardized test asked for by some master’s and doctoral programs. Lumi helps with vocabulary and formulas, not with speed.
In short
The GRE assesses verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning and analytical writing. It is run by ETS and used by some graduate programs, especially in the US. Many programs no longer require it, so check each program’s rule. The format has seen changes, so read the current official description before you practice.
What goes on your cards
The GRE is mainly a test of reasoning and speed, trained with timed practice. The verbal part leans on a rich vocabulary, and the math part on basic formulas. Put words on cards with their meaning and a sentence, along with algebra, geometry and statistics formulas. Add your types of traps.
A study rhythm
Vocabulary words stick better in one big spaced deck than in small crammed ones (Kornell, 2009). Do a little of your cards every day, and a timed practice test now and then.
