ZWG009 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Looking for other people taking the November Test, trying to get an idea of whether or not this forum will be of any use. There is a ton of time left so if we get a whole bunch of people working together on a wide variety of problems I am sure we could all benefit. Check in if you are interested in aggresivly preparing for this test, the forum looks pretty dead judging from the post dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramazorg Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I am wondering, are there any good resources available for the GRE math test preparation? I know there are a few (only two) books such as by princeton review, however, is there anything more? The official books by ETS seem to be out of print. Does anyone know where to obtain more sample tests? Has anybody tried reading this book? It was recommended to me by some math students.

gamarouge Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Hi Ramazorg, As far as my knowledge goes there are only two books available as you mentioned. Some of the ETS material may be available in Math libraries in your university. REA has couple of sample exams, my assumption is you already know about this. Berkeley Problems in Mathematics seems to be an appropriate book for this exam. I will try and get one. Thanks for the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorpion_flower Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 When does the registration for the subject test open... i am willing to write it in october. As of now I don't think the site is giving any dates. As far as the books are concerned,the berkeley book is for PhD quals . It is definitely above than the level of the subject test. Who are the students here who would be applying for a PhD in maths? Please send me a private message.I would like to get in touch thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckyball Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 I got PR 85 from last year and I'm thinking if I should retake the subject test this year. Still, there is roughly one month left and I also have to improve my TOEFL to reach 100-105+ (my score now is 96). I kind of hesitate whether to take the subject test again. I'm not sure how much I can boost my score and how serious the grad schools are taking about the subject test score. Some said the recommendation and research are more necessary but I don't have any research. What do you guys think? Any suggestion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramazorg Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 If you mean 85th percentile, then I wouldn't bother to re-take the subject test. Its a pretty good score, and if you write it again it is possible that you do worse or about the same, in which case it won't look good for your grad school application.

It was recommended to me by some math students. Berkeley Problems in Mathematics (Table of contents) Hi Ramazorg, Berkeley Problems in Mathematics seems to be an appropriate book for this exam. I will try and get one. Thanks for the post. No, it is not! It would be gratuitous to do so! You would end up doing so much superfluous things unnecessary for the GRE! Use the GRE Prep books. They are enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
