Heart is gre bible useful?

hello friends i have my gre in 2 weeks time . the biggest mistake i did was not to memorise the barrons but i knew its too late last time i gave a test in cambridge i got 540 and 690 although i am confident in strikin above 750 in quants < as i practised and scored higher in pbt s> verbal is my area of most concern

i was going through one of posts of just finished my gre and decided to take gre bible as a last resort for verbal i have fiished almost the bible verbal workout with the vocabulary builder < pretty easy stuff man learning was fun> but i doubt if its enough for a decent score i aim around 1500 +- 100
can u please help me out is gre bible enough what supplements this for a better performance

yes it is. It helped me a great deal. Their quant and verbal are way much harder than the real GRE. Furthermore, all the voc words i came accross were from the GRE Bible. I was surprised to find out that so many on this forums found GRE Bible to be absolutely useless.

My experience is that GREBible is loaded with mistakes. Some of their questions are good, but a lot of them are stolen. There are also some technical bugs. I found their verbal section to be incredibly easy. I consistently scored 800 on the verbal section without trying very hard.

It's certainly not my favorite software.

ya i really accept thy claim kick boxer but how abt the vocab builder isnt far easy tan barrons i find it very easy learning words would tat be enough. i shall take tests from cambridge big book and 800 . will this be useful just for learning words.

Royalbull: I haven't scheduled an exam date but I might take it this month or next month. Not sure yet.

I think the vocab builder in GREBible is very good. It's one of their best features.
