Gre!!!!

I just took the GRE in April and did a lot better than I thought I would do. I had only studied for about 2 weeks and got a 1120 combined and a 4.0 on the written section. I used the Kapplan study guide book.

Go for it, I am sure you will do great. Remember, you can always retake it if you don't like your scores and you will have a better idea of the areas you need to study.

good luck! I took it last August and got a 1330, but I am applying to different programs. If you have been studying since april you should be fine. My only suggestion (which I didn't do) is look over the format for the essay section. If you follow what they want you get a better score, I didn't do that since I figured I knew how to write.

best of luck!

ZuZuTrauma,

I took the GRE last August. I studied for about four weeks and ended up doing just fine (1480/5.0). The quantitative section was pretty easy for me once I spent time reviewing the material. The verbal was pretty frustrating. Know your roots and stems and prefixes and all that, and then prepare to whittle down and guess. Also, excellent advice given by shock-me-sane; at least look over the general requirements and expectations for the essay section. It makes actually writing the essay (given the time constraints) A LOT easier. Good luck!

Of course you are anxious, but that is only normal. I say take the test, do your best and if the score is not what you want consider taking it again. Everything you have done to get to this point was work, so this is just another hurdle!
