I believe it helps. It worked for me. Doing so would help you know what you are getting into. And your score might shock you shocked and give you the much needed motivation to get the job done. Save the second for the last.

@andradaeze, pls where/how do I get the powerprep to start with? More so, help or someone should help send me the magoosh videos.

Thanks guys.

which one should one read,5lb manhattan or just the 1-6manhattan books, i cnt continue reading cx i dnt knw which to read,i dnt hav d 5lb manhattan.And the Ets math review,smone shld pls send me.i hv less dan two month for my exam,thankx
.

Hello ModestGal,
Step 1
Take the first PowerPrep Full Test. You can download it from ETS website.

Step 2
Download Magoosh Vocab App for Mobile. You can also practice it on PC. The same user account can work for both. Start practicing and take note of what works for you

Step 3
I believe by now. You would have taken note of questions you failed on Powerprep and you have listed the topics. Good, go to ETS math review and start learning the basics of those topics. Before you move to other topics.

Step 4
Go to Manhattan 1-6 and revise those difficult topics. Take note of Formulas and concepts. In fact, get a journal and jot those down.

Step 5
Manhattan 5lb comes in here. Start solving from those topic you find difficult to the ones you find easy. Make sure you understand solutions.

Step 6
I assume you have been working on your Vocabs. Be consistent in your study. Take note of synonyms. It was easier for me that way. Make sentences(crazy, weird, etc). Use your imagination.

Step 7
Keep studying. Every study hour counts. Be consistent in study and modify plan as you continue. For Magoosh videos, maybe you should ask codexgigax grin. Then for Analytical, look at happyday's previous posts. I think his strategy is the best that I know of.

Step 8.
Please eat very well. All the best, dear.

Thanks Nitta08. I used roughly two weeks to prepare, but was on and off because I was putting in my applications at the time. I only focused on it a day to the exam. I knew I was not really prepared for the speaking section.

I used the Toefl official guide from ETS, the free interactive sampler on ETS website and I watched NoteFull videos from the NoteFull website.

Good luck in your tests!

Hey house, for those that have potential advisors at various schools; please make sure you inform the professor after making your application to the graduate school. Some of these guys have possibly accepted more than just you as a potential student, hence might forget and you will need to remind them.

And for those looking for potential advisors keep emailing them. If you're applying to top tier schools in your program (Top 20-30). Some of the professors won't reply you. Don't mail just one, though you might have a favourite, be a bit flexible. Best, you will read journals tire. But I pray our efforts get rewarded.

I used them; they are very legit and theirs is relatively cheap.

I remember I met a guy on my test day that paid almost 200% of what I paid for the test. All thanks Mafit.

Hi, I have a question about them cos I just realized ther d one I have been staring at online for a while. Do you get your score directly from gre or it passes through mafit?

The Mafit group are legit. I registered through them and I have since gotten a confirmation mail from ETS. All you have to do is get their number from the website. Call them and express your desire to be registered for the GRE. You'll be asked to go pay 50k into their GT bank account. You can confirm the bank account online or from any one who has used their services.
When you've paid the said amount into their account, you can proceed to create an ETS account. Pls be careful when creating the account as the names must match those on the ID you're to present on the test date. Proceed to give Mafit a call and pass along your ETS username and password so they can log in and book the exam for you. Before now you'll have chosen a test date as they'll need that info too.
At your discretion you can change the password of your ETS account once you've gotten a confirmation mail from ETS.
Hope I was clear enough??

Success on the GRE

Scores come directly from ETS. Once you are registered, you don't have any other business with Mafit.

At JJK center on Nov 18 for Toefl they specify International passport and those with other form of Id were not allowed to write. I don't know about other exams or places. I suggest u go with your International passport its better to be safe than sorry.
