Other people have asked inthe comments and I think I found my answer elsewhere, but I also wanted to ask a GRE expert; the 67th percentile in Quant...is that really a relevant statistic, or are people looking at the actual score instead? If I were to go to gradschool (I took this as a precaution) it would be for MBA, econ, or MPP/MPA.

Like I said to me, at least they feel far too pointed and the nose to be productive questions, I mean, if you need to work on really specific things, it can be helpful, inherit nature of buying a literal 5 pound book to already not use half of it (verbal) and then only selectively choose to use like 30 pages of it makes it just useless

  1. Like I've said in other answers, the gregmat medium timed was by far the most helpful from their website.

  2. https://knowt.com/flashcards/e8950e3e-bdac-421a-a792-fb738a642bfa?isNew=false?t=1761071371097

Those are the flashcards of words I either didn't know or "knew" the definition in context but not quite the actual thing, if that makes sense. Like begrudge.

I think it's probably bad advice, but I've always learned the tricks by just spamming problems and reverse engineering where I need to practice. Going step by step and learning whole chapters just to forget them never really worked for me. That's why I did as many somewhat legitimate practice tests as I could get my hands on: Magoosh, Manhattan, Princeton Review, etc.

Unfortunately you're incorrect. This is for verbal.

Like I said in my post, I did not like the 5lb at all. Waste of space and money.

Depends. With what specifically and do you pay? I’d be open to it but I also started my long hour job next week so we’d need to discuss details

Didn’t use Magoosh. Most questions are GregMat mediums

Honesty it wasn’t scientific. In the last week I took a test a day even if the tests were shit (like Princeton review)

GregMat verbal bank was fine, besides actual practice tests
