  1. ultimate math refresher, look at barrons the 2 most important things you need to remember is that * you need to be very quick * you need to be very creative the solution that causes you to blog down and do a 2 minute calculation is not going to help you you need to know your math to trust your own judgement, the minute you start to second guess yourself, your not going to have enough time to complete the test.
  2. I took the GRE yesterday but just feeling really sick and rundown, is it possible to get a voucher to retake it?
  3. Is the Gre an Intelligence test? Plz provide your opinion thanks.

  5. when i was in high school without any prep I scored around 1300 hundred, 690 math , 590 verbal and that even got me into some engineering schools. I graduated with a CS degree 5 years ago... yesterday i took the gre exam after looking through the Kaplan book for 2 days prior, 1# first of all, the kaplan book does not prepare you at all because the questions on the exam were way tougher than the Kaplan book.. I have been out of school for over 5 years and the math concepts in kaplan were definetly terse this was my first time (practice or otherwise) sitting and taking the Gre, and I was overwhelmed by two things a) I wasn't able to be quick , I like to take my time and make sure all the bases are covered, and I dont like to make mistakes. I think I spent like 5 minutes on 1 problem that I just wasn't sure. I only finished like 20/30 b) the four hours just wore me out, I got the writing, reserach sections first and by the time I got to math or verbal section I was so just ready to go home. c) Definetly BRING snacks or some protien. I took the test at evening and I was hungry the entire 4 hours. I am just shocked and surprised to tell you the truth, I honestly do not think i am this dumb, I got 490 M and 490 V... but then again I have some theories why I did so much better when I was younger than now... --------------- is it possible that I have become more duller or slower with my age? have I lost some of my sharpness? for the past 5 years I worked as a computer programmer in a very stressful environment, do you think the stress just wore me out?
