If you are sure you can do better, you should try again, IMO. This site has a lot of stuff to help with SC. There are some useful tips for RC, too.

Just relax a bit more, and do a lot of practice questions. Doing them will make it seem second nature. And participate actively here. You will see that there are many, many other folks just like you, trying their best to get a great score.

Don't worry, it's all normal, all part of the process.

thanks Erin,

Does "word count" really count in AWA.?

And guys ( and gals! ) check this site out ...www.aldaily.com.(suggested by Amigo)..this is THE site![8)]

the New York Times magazine archives have free articles, that are really good for RC...occasionally close to the usually boring RC passages seen on the GRE.

I found this fantastic book "All About Words: An Adult Approach to Vocabulary Building" by Maxwell Nurnberg, Morris Rosenblum, Morris Rosenblum..really useful for vocabulary.It cost below 100 Rs. in India.IT HAS PLENTY,PLENTY OF TESTS. Believe me friends, this book is terrific.
