well prepared!

by meganbherman Mon Aug 15, 2011 9:05 pm

I took the GREs at the end of college and was convinced even if I studied for years my GRE scores would never be good enough--not to mention I always psych myself out on test day...

My instructors calmed my fears and so I was only slightly nervous on test day--what also helped to calm my nerves was that after seeing a few questions I realized I was well prepared...

I am now very happy to say that at after completing this course and taking the exam my GRE scores went up by 400 points and my percentile scores in both verbal and quantitative more than doubled.

If you haven't taken the test yet fear not--keep working hard and you will be well prepared! Take a deep breath because you can definitely be VERY successful on this exam!!
Special shout-out and thank you to my instructors Liz and Brian!!

I have to concur with meganbherman; the difference in one's GRE scores before taking a course like Manhattan and afterwards can be very substantial. At the end of my undergrad I took the GRE and got a combined score of 1225, which is what I got on my SAT without taking a course; after taking the online at-your-own-pace program for 5 months, my score rose to 1425.

Good Luck!
