GRE Prep
« on: September 01, 2008, 09:16:19 pm »
I'm so fucked.  I have the GRE in a month and feel like the verbal section is going to own me so hard.  How to study?  Anyone taken the GRE yet?  Any advice?  Google gives me lots of shit and so I'm looking through this all...

You should talk to your school adviser about it.

I aced the math portion but got pwned hard by the verbal portion and also pwned the writing portion.  Go figure.
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Our species really annoys me.

It's like my SAT scores! 740 writing, 720 math, 620 reading. :/

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

My vocab sucks.  I usually pwn with analogies, but it's hard to pwn at analogies if you can't establish the relationship because you don't know what the word means.  Same with antonyms.  Sentence completion is cake and reading comprehension part is just a matter of time management/speed.  </3 verbal section.
