Tushar Kulkarni Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Hi, I am planning to give GRE on 1st OCT. I need your help in deciding the study material for Verbal section. Currently I have with me ETS official guide, Manhattan 5lb book and GRE BIG BOOK(old syllabus containing 27 tests). I am planning to use Manhattan 5lb for Quant, and GRE BIG BOOK for verbal(only RC section), Magoosh and Manhattan wordlists and ETS book for everything. So my questions are: 1) What should I refer for TC&SE? 2) Are the RCs from BIG BOOK relevant for new syllabus, or should I buy Manhattan RC book, (as it will also give me access to 6 tests) 3) Will the two wordlists(Magoosh and Manhattan prep) suffice?

kovalepskaia Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Hi Tushar,To choose suitably materials, you should evaluate your level. If you are beginner, you have to use an easy book such as official guide and Cracking 2013 (Princeton Review). If you are advance, you can work with Manhattan books, Verbal Kaplan...I test the structure of the exam that is prejudice to RCs. RCs new is pretty different with old big book. It is up to you for the use of the wordlists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vish123 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Hi Tushar, Its great that you are already studying from the ETS official guide and other books. If you still want advice, I'd suggest you to take a look at this Vocab App by Galvanize. It helps a lot with words and the GRE Verbal Section. I'm sure it will help so just take a look at it.

gentvenus Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I am going to recommend the official guide and Cracking 2013 (Princeton Review) as well. It was a life saver for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
