Mickeywilliams: Yes, it's late. Except you are targeting schools with deadlines in January and February. Of which you should have gotten positive feedback from PIs in those institutions to apply. |

Hello my fellow nlanders, I’m hoping to write my GRE online by early December or last week in November, so I can get my results sent to schools in good time before the Christmas break. I saw online that you can write the test online for $200/250 (can’t remember the exact figure) but now I’m seeing some people say they want to register for 50k. Please what is the legit and accredited GRE platform for writing. Also, who has study materials like Mahmood and Manhattan prep books. Thank you. 1 Like |

Hi everyone, i hope you are doing well. I found links to official GRE books and thought to share. I would have shared the links directly here however to avoid a DMCA takedown (meaning oyibo people go delete am), i would only share the instructions on how to get them. 1. Go to libgen.rs 2. type the name of the books into the search bar and press enter for example "The official guide to the GRE test" 3. Click any number from 1 to 4 on the mirrors column 4. click either cloudflare, ipfs.io or infura to download the books. You would find pdf's of every GRE prep book there. You can also find soft copies of any foreign textbook, novel, ebooks that you could possibly need. Happy studying and stay blessed. 18 Likes 5 Shares |

I recently wrote GRE and had 329. (v;161, Q;168). I’m waiting for the official result to be released but I’m very worried about the Analytic writing part. I started with that and I’m not sure I aced it. Still waiting on the official result. 4 Likes |

Gerrard59:sorry for asking this, is there any difference between Program instructor (PI) and Graduate coordinator ? |

Nozino: Congratulations Chief! Can you pls share any preparation tips? |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nozino: 7:57pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
Thomsyne: The usual. Use all Manhattan 6 books for Quant, Kaplan For Verbal, follow GRE official guide, join GRE forums and YouTube channels. Read ooo! And give yourself time to prepare. I started GRE preparation since June and I had to reschedule my exam at a point. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by DanjaNinja(m): 8:22pm On Oct 10, 2021 |

DanjaNinja:And you think they are enough for everyone? What evidence do you have to have made this claim apart from the fact that ETS materials are the best? |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by DanjaNinja(m): 8:36pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
Nozino: Sure but most people don't have time. |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by DanjaNinja(m): 8:52pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
GrammarNazi1: Lol. Really? Anyways, kindly forgive my ignorance. I don't have any evidence. You may use any resource you want. However, for clarity sake - Please note, ETS created the GRE. They have all the keys to the exam. Who best to learn from? ETS, the exam creators or a third party like Manhattan? And btw, i wrote the exam twice and i started this GRE thread to share lessons from my experience. Stay blessed. P.S For the curious, i am referring to these books: 1. The Official Guide to the GRE® General Test, Third Edition 2. Official GRE® Verbal Reasoning Practice Questions Volume 1, Second Edition 3. Official GRE® Quantitative Reasoning Practice Questions Volume 1, Second Edition You can download them using these instructions:

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by GrammarNazi1(m): 8:58pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
DanjaNinja:Was this a question of choosing between ETS and third party resources? Someone who just scored 161 and 168 advised people to use ETS, Kaplan, and Manhattan, yet you are saying only ETS materials should be used as if he said that only third party resources should be used! I actually understand your reservation concerning this matter especially since the correlation between the inception of At Home GRE and extremely high scores! I am extremely familiar with the GRE and I understand your reservation once again. 2 Likes |

Nozino:I believe most US schools wave English proficiency exams for Nigerians ? Or you are writing in order to have chances of applying to other scholarships and schools. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nozino: 9:24pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
bobolizim: Basically to get funding. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by bobolizim(m): 9:37pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
Nozino:really? Does it impede possibility of getting GAs? I would have thought maybe GRE would be enough or if an advisor agrees to accept you to join his lab. There’s a university I saw that ask students not to even submit their GRE scores. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nozino: 9:46pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
bobolizim: I feel it depends on the type of funding and program. Most funding for TA require that an applicant pass an English test irrespective of language. Some GAs also have the same requirement. TOEFL can help you bypass this requirement or having to give an interview. Considering the fact that I’m looking at Ph.D programs which combines research and teaching, I want to write and pass the exam. This is the perfect time for me, I just graduated, no family or job to take my time so I can study mostly full time. 5 Likes |

bobolizim: From my Google search, no difference except that GC is used in grad school discussions. But generally, they do same the thing. "The graduate coordinator is an appointed member of the Graduate Program Faculty and serves as the liaison between the department and the Graduate School with delegated authority of the department head. It is the responsibility of the graduate coordinator to implement all policies and procedures of the Graduate Council pertaining to graduate education." https://grad.uga.edu/index.php/faculty-and-staff/graduate-coordinators/ 2 Likes |

Nozino: An impressive score you got there. What is your profile like? That is: course of study and grade. While typing this, I forced myself to guess (you can correct me). First Class in an engineering discipline? |
