You all can check Gregmat's youtube channel and if you can, subscribe to his study plans - costs $5 monthly. The study plan is exhaustive and he explains the Verbal TC,SE and RC succinctly. You can also join the r/Gre channel on reddit, where you will find a lot of resources on GRE.

Thanks for this suggestion, and Congratulations on your result. If I may ask, how long did u study on your own and how long did u stay with gregmat?

I sure will subscribe, a very good deal.

Tbh, I spent about 4 months in total, 1 months personal and 3 months with Gregmat+. Your current level of verbal and quantitative reasoning and target score will determine your time. Quality over quantity. It's better you redo week 1 than to proceed with partial knowledge. Do make sure you follow the plan holistically and experiment with a lot of materials. I noticed assumed I knew some concepts without practicing under test conditions and that came back to bite my ass. Fall 23 applications open September so you can plan towards it.

Hello
I plan to write the GRE exams later this year. Can anyone point me in the direction of what to do or materials to study with?
Also, where does a good GRE score starts from?

Thank you

a good GRE score starts with 300...a total score of both the verbal and quantitative sections and an AWA score of at least 4.5

Pls I've been wondering, why is the AWA scores not included in the overall 340 score result?
Quants - 170
Verbal - 170
Total Maximum Score - 340
Where do they add the 6 points from the AWA section?

Then what's the maximum number of words required in the AWA section?

The AWA is scored separately: 6.0

There is no stipulated number of words to type for the AWA but effective responses have been known to be around 500 words.

Yes I know the AWA is scored separately. My question is why it isn't added to the total Maximum score of 340 like it's done with TOEFL?
E.g. Quants: 170
Verbal: 170
AWA: 6
To total 346 maximum obtainable score

Don't compare it to TOEFL as the two exams have different structures.

You need to realize that most schools don't even set a score for the AWA.

I understand the two exams are of different structures. I'm only wondering why the 6points for AWA section isn't usually captured along with the 340maximum total score.

Pls what do you mean by Most schools don't set a score for the AWA, does that mean one's performance in the AWA isn't all that important since it's score isn't clearly added to that of the other two sections?

Most schools don't set any score requirement for the AWA section because the section is not as important to them as the quantitative and verbal sections.

Flunking that section is, however, not advised.

Where do they add the 6 points from the AWA section? The AWA (Analytical Writing Assessment ) is a different assessment on its own....it is not graded by the computer but graded by trained ETS human graders and thus has a separate score.

Then what's the maximum number of words required in the AWA section?
It is graded from Score 1 to 6 based on your Analytical Writing skills( if any)
