Click Image To Visit Site Did you realize that most of the American students begin to focus on GRE 2 to 4 weeks before the test? You can confirm this yourself if you spend 10 minutes to check the reviews on Amazon.com.
If you are a non-American student who wants to score high on GRE and is willing to spend 2 months or more on GRE prep, then you Franklin Vocab System’s audio program for GRE vocab can greatly help you get a higher score.
It may surprise you that GRE tends to test you for meanings that are not the most common meanings of words. In fact, some of these you may never have heard in your life.
For example, here are some words and the meanings you need to know (taken from the course). I have also added the meaning that will not lead to correct answer:
milk = extract USE = the directors milked the company of several million dollars (not the milk you drink)
riddle = to make many holes in, permeate USE = the anti-aircraft guns riddled the plane’s wings with bullets (not a puzzle)
rifle = search through and steal USE = the safe had been rifled and the diamonds were gone (not the rifle used for firing bullets)
You don’t get 3 or 5 or 10 meanings and sentences that are impossible to remember (a dictionary is better if you want to do PhD on some aspects of words).
I give you short and memorable sentence fragments, so you can remember faster and better without wasting time.
euphoria = elation, feeling of well-being or happiness USE = in a state of euphoria evade = to avoid USE = don’t evade taxes excerpt = selection from a book, extract USE = excerpt of a new book illicit = unlawful, illegal USE = illicit liquor immense = huge USE = at immense cost de facto = actual USE = de facto standard (Not full sentence) draconian = harsh USE = draconian laws prodigy = a person with extraordinary ability or talent USE = a child prodigy eke = to add to, supplement USE = to eke out a living Herculean = powerful, large USE = a Herculean task pyrrhic = a battle won… Read more…
