2. Verbal Reasoning

Verbal Reasoning requires the most amount of preparation for GRE. The following word lists are integral to succeed in the GRE:

  • Barron's 333
  • Barron's 1100
  • Manhattan 1000

Apart from this, solve as many practice questions as you can. Even if you have a good vocabulary, you will only be successful in the GRE if you have an idea of the verbal question patterns. Many words you may not find in the word lists are available in sample questions and these are closest to the questions you may have to face in your actual exam.

Apart from the official ETS GRE guide, the following books have many verbal questions that will help in practice:

  • 5 lb book of Practice Problems (Manhattan Prep.)
  • GRE Prep (Kaplan)

For GRE self-study preparation, you will need the following study materials for different sections of the examination:

1. Quantitative Reasoning:

ETS: GRE The official guide to the Revised General Test should be sufficient if you already have a good grasp on 10 th grade mathematics or if you had Mathematics as a subject in the 12 th grade. Solve all the practice questions given in a timed environment.

2. Verbal Reasoning
