Well to be honest the first time I did the GRE I hadn't really studied the Barron's list, and I remember I was just in a hurry to get it over and done with because the exam room was excruciatingly hot and very uncomfortable. From the Powerprep practice tests I've been doing so far, I haven't come across a non-Barron's word. I hope to say the same for the actual exam.

BTW, when are you attacking GRE?
What were two that words? It is emcompassed in non- Barron's words that someone has posted.

I am going to take GRE in November. However, I'm still be a little irresolute and I do not register. I'm afraid I do not have enough time for cramming for the test. New semester is going to start and I'm having to pay much attention on finishing my paper for an International Conference. It wastes lots of my time.

I ponder about taking it in Feb, 2010. I want to have a good preparation because I have to get more than 550 in Verbal section. The average Verbal score of one of the universities I apply for is 550 last year.

we can't disclose test content

It's good that you are aware about making publications, this would certainly boost your profile.
