?About Real GRE.

?[1] as usual BARRONS wons the confidence once again.

all words r from barrons. i would encourage all of my friends to go through the barrons world list, thats enough.

[2] antonym r easy i think one or 2 r of having secondy meaning also . for this i would encourage all people tp go through Achievers poin antonym book , as all antonym r from this book almost.

[3] analogy r i think simple for me , i found them either direct antonym ,synonym or a degree os relationship. but no repetition of all which i had seen before , they all r new. but r easy.

[4] Sentence completion r not so tough , they r direct verbal base if u have good vocub u?can easily cracy them .

[5] RC , generally NIGHTMARE for me ,i think i had all the RC quastion wrong on the test.

RC r easy but question r too tough , not direct inferable.so i encourage all friends to put more effoerts on RC.

Sequence of question.

my first 4 question r esay i think i attempt all of them in 1 min of time.

[a] 5 th question comes RC with 40 lines.

[b] RC is esy but question is much Tough at leat for me, though i m weak in RC.

[c] as i had to attempt first 15 question right. so i spent next 9 min on the next 4 RC question.

[d] after that i faced all easy question till 20th which i probably made all correct.

[e] then agian i faced 4 rc question which put me agian in dilamatic situation.

but i start guessing on them.

[f] . from onwards 25th to 30th question r easy and i finish the test 2 min earlier.

?

As a confidence on maths since from chilhood,i never studied GRE maths. and had to face lose of 10 marks in maths.

i got 790 in maths.

question were easy but language is tough and lengthy difficult to infer, each question takes 30 sec for me to infer the language.i just concentrate on first 15 question and then make quick approach . time is just matching with last question.

?

some of the question which i remember r as folows.

?

[a] antonym od vapid, halcyon,tacitern, sojourn,

[b] analogy r like too easy. if i m notmistaken like???? one is audible:stentorian

[c] another is? lacklacdisa : defer

[d] and fill in the blanks r also easy.

?

the prepartion followed by me.

[a] i started prepartion 70 days before and devoted?8 hrs per day despite College hours.

[b] i gone through the following books.

?

[c] achieverspont analogy, antonym , sentence completion, wow, world family, RC, Acro , AWE book, NOVA,

?CLIFF, BARRONS.

?out of all i found barrons the most prefeable book and obviously all the achievers point book which make me confident.

i give following online test and with perfonmance

Cliff ————-Verbal 600,maths 750

barrons —————verbal 630 , maths 790

800.com?————– verbal 560. maths 780.

Acro?——————— verbal 610, maths 800
