Took the GRE too - my #1 tip would be to take a practice test immediately when you decide to take the GRE. No review, or drills needed. This will give you a good baseline of what the test feels like and where your strengths and weaknesses lie. Drill your weaknesses until you're comfortable with them, then rinse and repeat. Good luck, and go for it!!
I’m a majoring in psychology so here’s a few tips: 1) Don’t study in the same place, change it up. Study at a coffee shop one day, or at home in your room another. This lets your brain know that the information it’s gathering is important to remember as it continues to show up in different environments. 2) If you set a day to take a practice test (like she recommend in her video) try and match the environment you’ll be testing in as close as possible. That way when you sit down to take the actual test, your brain will recognize the type of environment and will make it easier to recall information. 3) If you have test anxiety, then definitely set a date aside to do a practice test and do number 2. This should hopefully help you face your anxiety so on the actual day you’re a bit more relaxed. 4) Again with testing anxiety: avoid coffee at all costs. Caffeine can raise your anxiety which will effect the way you perform on a test. That’s all I got for now. Good luck everyone!
Thank you for this video! I love that you showed us an example schedule. I'm considering taking the GRE and this really put the studying process in perspective.
I've watched a few GRE videos today and yours has definitely been the most helpful! I actually feel like I might be able to study, take the test, and pass now! Thank you :)
Even tough I don’t currently study GRE, I find this clip helpful because your tips seem to apply to other study in general. It feels like I get motivated after watching this 😊 아 그리고 다음 영상 주제 신청?해요 무기력함/우울함 등 멘탈관리 어떻게 하는지 궁금해요 그럼 이번주도 즐거운 한 주 되셔요 :)
Hi! :) thanks for all the great tips. Could you perhaps make a similar video of how you chose to prepare for your consulting interview? I suppose you could view a case study as an "exam" and it would be great to hear which books you decided to read. Also I am not sure if I should be doing extra (technical) reading along side this. In my case, the interview will be hosted by a Pharmaceutical firm. I'm not sure if I should be reading up more on the latest in science as I would be categorized as part of the R&D business consultants. Sorry for the wordy message! :) All the best,
I'm not sure if you have studying tips for when you in college where you'll show everything slowly and how to schedule your studying time in a calender or in a planning book. stu,dying tips and how to write nice when your studying.
Great video and motivating in general. Thanks for all the tips!! I'm finishing up at Goldsmiths now so as you know doing the dreaded dissertation so this applies to that as well. ;)
Thanks so much for this very informative video. Love your posts and the clear and understandable way you explain things! You rock! I wish you a wonderful continuation of this working week and looking forward to see new posts on your amazing channel.
I am doing my master but still click in this video because I really love your tone of voice, which is so calm. For your future video, could you share your job hunting skills or interview experience? Thanks.
Such a helpful video! I took the exam a few months ago while working full time and did not follow through my study plan at all... Wish I know these steps during then:)
@@bykchoi Could you make a video about how to write personal statement for Master's program? Love to hear about your experiences and tips on these post-GRE stuff:)
I remember watching your video here way back in 2019 and I just got the same total score as you a few weeks ago #studyinplace :) Applying to MBA's now.
@@bykchoi I just got into the MBA program at Oxford, and I'm also looking to go into consulting/impact consulting. Did you think it was difficult to switch careers in a one year program?
hello Kchoi, thanks for your sharing. Although I don’t need to take GRE, I still really enjoy this video and all the contents in this channel ❤️ I’ve been subscribed your channel since you moved to London for master degree. I love your travel vlogs and cooking recipe the most 🌸
I'm really afraid of setting a test date without studying. I really want to be prepared for the GRE this summer. I will buy some books to start hopefully this week. I'm trying to get a good score for PA school because my GPA is not high enough to be noticed.
I currently looking at applying to Masters of Management programs in the UK. I am trying to avoid taking any standardized test if possible because I've always been bad at taking them. I see that a lot of the programs, including UCL, says on their application site that GRE or GMAT is not required but encouraged. Do you have any insight into how much the test scores will affect the application, especially if I have a few years of work experience? I LOVE your videos! Thanks for sharing your experience! : )
I can’t say for sure because it depends on so many factors! I can only speak from my experience, and I decided to submit a score with my application (and had a few years of work experience as well). Since it’s not required, I don’t think it can hurt you to not include it so hopefully you don’t need to worry - it can only help!
Sorry if I missed it but how many hours a day do you usually set aside for studying and how many weeks did you study for the exam before taking it? Thanks!
Hi Kchoi ...just one request , actually i'm plannin to take GMAT's and i know you have given GRE but can you get someone on your channel who has taken GMATs' and can give a brief idea about that exam and how to plan for it. I have been following your channel for months now and the way you go about explaining things are super cool. Thanks and keep making videos :)

Hey K, was wondering if you might share a video on running? Or your health and fitness experience? (Staying healthy when traveling for work etc.) I’m just getting started out with running, and am asking everyone their advice on overcoming the mental block when pushing for longer distances etc. Thought this might be of interest, as you post some really good updates on your Insta. Thanks!
I passed all GRE exans i had 325 points thanks to Mr Clark who helped me with tutoring.He has good tips and questions for everyone willing to join his group.I was recommended to him by a friend even though it took me time to trust in him but at the end I was happy for the good work.I want to take this opportunity to tell you all to join him in his tutoring and trust him despite the process
GRE is a generalized exam and GMAT is mostly used to apply for MBA programs! The GMAT is typically more challenging and the GRE can be used to apply to a wider range of programs. But most MBA programs accept GRE scores now too.
Thank you so much for this video! I am literally about to start studying for the GRE myself! My main question/concern is, I already have a GRE book from Kaplan (for when I thought I was going to take the exam earlier) but it's from 2017. Is it still good to use or should I just buy a new one? Or keep it and just buy new books for the different subjects? Thank you so much!
Good question! I might read the description of the latest version to compare (maybe they list what’s new or different). It’s probably fine to keep it but getting new books for the other subjects is not a bad idea!
