Emergency Help

I need help. Ive studied for the GRE for 3 weeks intensely since all I want in my score is 1000 to 1100. I need at least a 1000.

I started off horrible got an 840......on one CAT

then I studied the princeton review book (cracking) and learned about 300 new words and studied the math along with the tests from ets 7 tests. I started to hover over 1000....on the CATS. Several CATS ....over 1000. Now Since Ive taken the CATs...Im starting to sink below 1000 in my last 2 CATs.

Im been a nervous breakdown, straight A student and 3 weeks of this is driving me nuts..on the brink of tears hehe. I have one week left and I really need a national average score.

Any suggestions on where to focus my energy on. SHould I just leave the verbal out and study the Math? SHould I download the powerprep and study that instead? Any ideas?

THANK YOU for your feedback!


Cat Average

Verbal Has been in the 420-470 range
Math Has been in the 500-550 range,

I guess no CBTs will give you the exact evaluation as powerprep, it's the closest one to the real test, and if you're scoring 500-550 on math, I guess you should focus on math and increase it to 650+, while reviewing vocabulary. don't forget 333barron most frequ.
so I would say, do PP several times, review math and practice from this forum, and review vocab, guess you'll be ok. just don't panic, it's not that difficult to get around 1100. good luck.

thank you for the kind words~!!

Yea i re-worked all the problems I missed on the CATS.
Most of them were silly mathematical errors and because I was nervous

Im going to study the powerprep every day , take the pp exams next weekend.

Review 60 pages of problems on the math forum!
Review my vocabulary words!


I'll let you all know how it goes! (PP and Real Exam)
