I am always contented, not envious of others and always want people to win and be a better version of themselves. food4tot: [quote author=food4tot post=137940812]World population is currently about 8 billion.
I am usually content and I never aspire to be better than others. I only want to be a better version of my old self. No one would describe me as a liar or a thief.
I try not to be biased and see everyone as a product of their lived experiences and genetics.
I believe if everyone had my kind of mentality we would be fair and give room to different opinions. I'm not afraid to die. Death is the end for us all.
Dying at age 2, 33 or 109 is meaningless in the grand scheme of eternity. We and this universe will come to an end. Science says so.

If everyone around you behaved exactly the way you do, would the world be better or worse?
We often discuss how things should be: better leaders, better systems, and better people. But change doesn’t only happen at the top; it shows up in everyday choices.
In your own life, what small or deliberate things do you do to improve the space around you, your home, workplace, street, or online community? And be honest: what’s one thing you know you could do better?
There are no perfect answers here. Just real ones. So, what do you do to make the world around you better? |

Education › Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Pekun210(m): 8:44pm On Jun 01, 2021 |
Thanks DanjaNinja: 2021 UPDATE It's been 6 years since i wrote this post and i still can't believe how this post has transformed into an amazing community of people working collaboratively to pass this exam. That said, i believe the materials and guidelines listed in the original post are currently inadequate. While it's been years since i wrote the GRE, there are two key information that are timeless.
1. The only resource you need is the Official GRE prep book. It's an excellent resource written by the creators of the exam. Who best to learn from than those who created the exam? Ignore every other book and just get the Official GRE guide.
2. The official GRE practice tests are extremely valuable. Powerprep online and Powerprep plus online are all you need. They are the closest substitute to the real exam. Before taking the test, i beg you, please do at least one Powerprep Practice test. I would strongly suggest you do the Powerprep plus online test. Yes, its a paid service but trust me, it's worth every penny. Please note, I failed to do this and it was evident in my scores.
Once you get these resources (the book and the practice test), the rest is up to you. Create a study plan and then study as much as you can. As you study, please try as much as you can to do the exercises in the books. Your learning is complete when you can answer questions related to that concept flawlessly. If you can’t solve problems, brotherly…sisterly…your learning is incomplete. Kindly go back and relearn the material.
Finally, after studying, do the Powerprep online or Powerprep plus tests. It might take you weeks or months to study and write the exams. It doesn't matter. Do what works for you with an eye on the college admission cycle. At this point, you are most likely prepared for the main exam. Go forth and slay your test with grace.
I know the process may not be as linear as stated above. You would have days where you have no desire to study. Sometimes, you might even feel lonely. This is entirely normal. To keep going, surround yourself with like minded achievers - they are many amazing people on this forum who you can connect with. Additionally, pay attention to your health, sleep and diet. The brain works superbly when you are well fed, sleep well and have a stable emotional life.
Before i leave, i just want you all to know that life is a beautiful journey. Stay focused and keep working on your dreams. One day you would wake up and discover you are living your dreams. It has been that way for me. I started with the believe that i would study and live in the US. Today, i am living that dream.
Stay blessed. Danja. |
