Hia,

I am new to this forum, but not the GRE... I have been running away from it for the last 4 years...trying to find a way out... Indeed I applied without a GRE (TOEFL 114/120) and got an admit on full standing with 50% Fee Waiver for fall 2008...Anyway could not afford the other half, So I quit.

As of now, I feel that an absence of a GRE score might have influenced their deceision, So I have decided to stand and make a fight right here, right now.

However, I have to join a job on 10th of September, with bootcamp training for 3 months and if I have to make an effort for full financial aid for fall 2009, I fell this is the only time I hav got. Thhis means approximately 52 days remain for the D Day...I have picked up Barron's , done with 30 word lists (I hope I can remember them all).. I have decided to go for Nova for Maths and Power Prep for practice..

I am aiming for a 1400+.. What I want to know is that if I take only Barrons For Verbal, Nova and Barrons for Quantitative and Barrons + Power Prep for tests, would it suffice for my aim... I know I have been negligent in not studying Big Book in the days that just flew by, But I want to ask if I am working towards Glory or Disaster... Is this study material sufficient for the battle ahead? Or should I do ....what...

Any Kinda help would be great in ridding me of these anxiety stricken moments...

Thanx

Rohit
