Dimas, actually i don't remember accurately the wordings of ant. qs in actual test. Neverthess, perhaps u shdn't expect any repeat from anything too anyway...The qestion wrd is more often than not familiar...expect atleast that the answer-choices will necessarily be paraphrased...this practice mat. helped me a lot...particularly bcoz it also contains a lot of puzzling ones. And ETS dont pose in front u words beyond these words...may be one/two in ne particular test session...also this list helps in learning few newer words too...like for me a few in this mat. were ESTIVAL, MATUTINAL etc. That's it!

Manasi, antonyms level in real test was as I expected to be...Some needed second thought due to closely related answer-choices, the question words didnt seem novel to me...since, i was not getting the percentile standing of that particular q while answering i cldn't guess whether it was tough/easy... But one thing I can assure you...the antonym qs like STYMIE/FOSTER/APPRISE etc. which we had discussed here earlier seemed very weird to me after the test...as test answer-choices were really rational. Only one novel wrd I remember is SMARMY, that too in anlogy...NO!...I don't think an ETS framed Antonym Question will give you blues...for me all question wrds were known...bcoz i also looked at non-barron words...So, that's it!...u can cram a few out-barron word if u hv time...no harm in it...but dont do that anticipating w/o doing so u'll get blues.
