At the end of the day it’s all about using the right resources and how you approach this test. I scored a 339 (Q:169, V:170, AWA:5.0) from a 296 (Q:158, V:138, AWA:4.) and I had to completely revamp my thought process and approach towards the GRE.
I took it today and did quiet poorly. Although a jump in score like yours would be incredible, I’m hoping for at least 7-15 point jump. I would really appreciate it if you helped me out and gave me some recommendations on what you used to help your score.
This channel is so underrated man! I love your walkthroughs and fully transparency of resource materials you've used, which most channels don't include! Also thanks for including all the links in the description!
Thank you so much for this video Sithijia. I have been so overwhelmed with this whole process as this test is a very big factor in me getting into PA school because of my not so good GPA. I’m SO grateful for this video. This test has been so daunting but I feel so much better about it now. You’re the best!!
Wow! Thank you so much, Monica. When I uploaded this video I didn't know if anyone would see it or if it would help anyone. I am so glad that this gives you a starting point for studying for the GRE. Always feel free to reach out, thanks again Monica ☺ Good luck!
Subscribed! thank you for the genuine information! i have given my GRE in April, got just 306 marks :( and your videos help a lot !!!! will be giving another attempt in 50 days🤞🤞🤞😇😇😇😇😇
Thank you so much for this Sithija. This helped a lot . I plan to take the GRE in December and I am looking forward to have a good study plan and resources to help me hit my target score of 320 . Thanks again !
You're an absolute legend, you explained everything so clearly! And thank you for linking everything you mentioned! So glad I found your video, by far the most helpful one I've found so far.
Thank you, Sithija for the very informative video. I was so lost on where to begin studying for the GRE, so I'll be using all of the prep materials that you used!
Thanks. These seem like solid resources I think my biggest barrier is being able to think under test conditions -- dehydrated while having to go to the bathroom. Got a 170q+164v on the ETS practice, quant dropped 6 points on the official exam. It's a shame that bladder size, typing speed, and tolerance to dehydration are among the criteria to enter grad school
Hey Dhruv, thanks for watching! Yeah tbh that is an issue. Like they also don't allow jackets in the testing room when I took it unless you were going to not take it off at any point or something like that. Back during covid, they didn't let you take of your mask at any time too. And yeah, since it's an online test too there are some further constraints. Dw though, you're still set up to succeed. Best of luck, Dhruv!
WOW. Just fabulous video. I'm in the process of watching several of your videos. I've decided to take the plunge and take on the GRE. I don't have a specific test date in mind, but I would like to be overprepared, but I honestly didn't know where to begin. I have the Kaplan GRE book from the library! Thank you for all of your resources!
Thanks alot for such an accurate, helpful guide you gave for GRE. The best I watched among all. Thanks alot for linking down all the resources. God bless you.
Thanks for creating content like this for others as it is very helpful. Just started studying for the GRE today as my goal is to get into Midwestern University’s Doctor of Physical Therapy program.
@@sithijamanage i want to get in Cambridge or Harvard for master in civil engineering so 325 is an impressive score tell me plz what's your opinion about it
@@faisalarshad9909 Hi Faisal, those are great schools. 325 is a good score, but the rest of your application will determine whether or not you are the type of applicant they are looking to accept
Hey man this video was super helpful! I’m taking this summer to study for the GRE before applying to grad schools and I’ve been hella worried, but I’m feeling a lot more confident now! Keep it up, your channel rocks
Thank you so much for this video, I'm doing my verbal prep from Barron's Essential Words for the GRE. I do have 5lb book with me. I got an extra source v.i.z., quizlet of manhattan. Thank you for this.
Thanks for this video! I'm interested in grad school and had no clue of how to even begin studying for the GRE. My university offers a course of $900. It seems excessive. I prefer studying the books you've listed in your video!🤣🤣
Can't stop smiling 😊😊😊 after i finally passed my test for the second trail .kindly inbox me for tips and rationals trust me you won't regret it thanks once again 🥰🥰🥰
Hey, your score are really great, especially AWA score. I will take GRE exam in April 2022 and I fear mostly AWA section. Pls, tell me is there any online site where I can practise AWA essay to get at least 5.0 on AWA section. Can you suggest a template that you used ?
Hi Brooklyn! I gave myself two months, and I think this video is exactly what you're looking for: ruclips.net/video/ikmRS-t85TQ/видео.html Let me know if I can help with anything else! Good luck Brooklyn
Hi I am planning to give my GRE in April, I have completed the quant portion from 5 LB book. Will do the manhattan prep guide book for revising the same! Thank you 😊
Hi! You've been so helpful with information in the past so I figured id ask, but Im noticing/hearing a lot of schools don't even require the GRE, and I bought a lot of text books but like no serious online or course prep but I was just wondering, do you think its necessary to even take if the schools Im interested in dont require it? like will they even still look at it if I apply?
Hi! I remember we chatted a little bit a month ago. Hope all is well! I think that's a very valid question. If the schools you are interested in don't require it, then I don't think it is mandatory that you take it. I know many people that have gotten into one of their top choice schools without taking the GRE. Hope that helps! Thanks again for watching
Hi Saeed, you want to learn the vocabulary for sure. That should set you up for success on the Verbal. For the quant, I would recommend doing as many of the questions as you can from the quant resources and then then taking the official ets practice thing. Hope that helps!
English is my second language I scored 115 on TOEFL after 3 months of prep and then 333 on GRE after about one month of prep. Everything I used to prep was from the internet for free.
Thank you for your video! I did the 5lb and the official gre quantitative practice questions, do you think I need any other resource for the quantitative section or that should be good?
Thank you Sithija for this precise and informative video. I plan to take the test this September and have around 2 months prep time. I plan to subscribe on Gregmat and follow the study materials (i.e, books and quizlets) as you suggested in this video. However, I was wondering in addition to these do I really need Magoosh account subscription? Is it worth it? Or will so many subscriptions and books confuse me even more? Did you use the Magoosh subscription?
@@sakshigupta7616 Well, I did use Magoosh subscription, but I felt it was nothing indispensable. All the books suggested by @Sithija are more than enough. However, I loved Gregmat for the Verbal tips, tricks, and strategies. Gregmat was absolutely worth it! Well, with such preparation I did secure offer letters from UTD and Cambridge.
@@fariazarinsubah9697 congratulations 🎉 thank you for advice. Gregmat is youtube channel right which videos should we watch for it. In one of Gregmats video it is recommending not to go with magoosh subscription so I will probably not take it. What do you think...please guide me.. Also did you do a lot of problems from Manhatten for quant and vocab. I don't have anyone to talk to about prep so your real advice will be very helpful
Hey bro! Quick question, I'm studying vocab through the Kaplan flashcards. Is that as good as Manhattan? Also how important is studying vocab, can one do without it? Cheers love the content
Hey bro! I haven't used Kaplan, but from an online search, it looks like the Kaplan 500 is a good one. I think studying those vocab words will prepare you well.
No, Abraham, thank YOU for watching lol. Mmm, I would probably recommend the complete guide, but honestly I've heard that the online prep is good. Maybe I would start with the complete guide and see how you feel.
Hey..firstly thank you so much for this video! This is the best video so far I have gone through! I am thinking of buying Manhattan 5ib book of practice probelms for gre preperation..does it cover the lessons as well or only practice problems? And is this book alone enough for the preperation as I also have magoosh app
HI! Thanks for watching this video. It actually takes quite a bit of time lol, as long as you do it little by little, adding the words you get incorrectly into the "starred" folder each time, you should eventually get through all 1000! Thanks again for watching, I appreciate it!
Hi, Thank you for enlightening me on this. please, how can I download the pdf form of all of the materials you mentioned for GRE practice so I can always practice at my leisure time .
Hi, for Quant, am directing jumping to problem sets in 8-books by Manhattan Series and where I find difficulties then I clear that concept, Ijust want to know is that strategy good ?, bcz I have only 30 days to prepare..TIA
hey Sithija, thank you for making this video, it was highly informative! Although, I want to ask you something. What is your opinion on self-study vs. classroom study (studying in a test preparation academy, like GreEdge or Magoosh) for GRE prep? Which one would you recommend? Which one did you follow?
Hey @musicalnotes I am facing the same dilemma, what did you do finally and how was it? I am thinking of self study from these books and all. What do you suggest
Hi! Thanks for watching this video. I actually didn't sign up for any online prep - just the books. Sorry that I can't give a more useful answer to this 😅
Hi! Do you recommend doing the ETS practice problems after completing all the other books or as you go? Im not sure if the ETS books has sections or if its all just random problems. I know you started with Magoosh but did you finish that completely then on to the next book?
for the practice exams and vocab quizlet did you do those along the way or wait until you completed the bulk of book work? Do the books have like practice problems after a certain unit to check your knowledge or did you use the EST book for that? Im worried that I might finish studying early and will not have the info fresh in my mind. So sorry for all the questions but literally thank you so much!!
@@ckoduok7896 Hi Ck, thanks so much for watching! I recommend doing the ETS practice problems at the end because they are the most realistic questions. I think doing them more towards the end lets us calibrate better. I finished Magoosh completely because it's a shorter book. I did practice exams and Vocab quizlets along the way for sure. The books have practice problems. Hope that helps, lmk if you have more questions! Thanks again for watching :)
For quantitative reasoning section, you said to get the Magoosh Complete Guide to the GRE. But on the screen shows two books: that one and GRE Prep by Magoosh. Which is better to use?
Can you also suggest the sequence. Like for qa and verbal we should start with magoosh and end with ets. So what is the in-between sequence of all other reources?
Hey Sakshi, hm,.. I would probably recommend starting with magoosh and ending with ets, and then I think it doesn't matter too much what you put in between. It's more just like what type of practice you'd like to get. Thanks for watching!
Bro the problem is I am in 4th year now, and now we are having internship as well as placement season has started. I am way confused that now how to study GRE and internship as same time, I had joined GRE coaching, But the problem I was unable to keep up it coaching class as we had Internal Exam of college. Can you share some tips to focus on GRE, and which online resources we should follow!!!! Pls read my comment
I think spending a little bit of time every day is the best way to do it! Maybe you can spend one hour per day? And then do a practice exam on the weekend. The most important thing is being consistent. Thank you so much for watching, Pratik!
hi sithija, i wanted to ask if it is necessary to buy latest 2022 edition of these books or older version from 2014 are the same , i have a 50 days to prepare hence, wanted to know if i need to buy new copies or if i can use my cousin's book
@@godswillibe2216 All the best bro. I wrote mine at Workforce in Lagos. Being scared doesn't help, in fact it may affect your performance on test day. I'll encourage you to do your best and be confident.
Hi, I am looking for books to practice ONLY Text conpletion and Sentence Equivalence. I have completed 5 lb. Is ETS Verbal reasoning good enough? I have 1 month left for GRE and I want to invest in a book which will give me a good final practice (verbal)
Hey Roe, thanks for watching. ETS Verbal reasoning is probably the best book for final prep because the questions will be very similar to the questions you will see on exam day. Hope that helps! Thanks
hi. that's a good video. Thank You. I want to ask specifically. I am very afraid of Quantative Reasoning. Can I get a score like yours if my overall preparation is 6 months from zero studying the material to the test? does that make sense? Thank You
Hi Rahma, sorry for the late reply! Thank you for watching. I think you can get a very good score. If you study consistently then you will be able to achieve a strong score after 6 months!
heyy im from pakistan. i got married in USA n gonna start my MS there. i have like couple months but GRE just seems too hard for me. i dont know where to start. i find vocab so hard cuz english isnt my 1st language. maths is just so hard cuz i'm leke medical sciences student, and its logic based which isso hard for me to understand. is there any way u could help me
Hi Arsh, thanks for watching! I think that the only way to get better is to study consistently. There are things that I struggle with too, and the only way that I will get better at them is by spending hours on hours trying to learn them. I think that if doing an MS in the USA is important to you, and if you need to score well on the GRE to get there, then you have to just start doing problems slowly. And each time you get a question wrong, you have to follow the solution to understand it. It may take a long time, but the only way is to practice doing questions. Hope that helps!
Hey Yash, thanks for watching! I think 5 months would only be good if you are starting from a very very low score and trying to score at the very top or something. For most people, 2-3 months is the best amount of time (in my opinion). Thanks!
At the end of the day it’s all about using the right resources and how you approach this test. I scored a 339 (Q:169, V:170, AWA:5.0) from a 296 (Q:158, V:138, AWA:4.) and I had to completely revamp my thought process and approach towards the GRE.

The books have practice problems. Hope that helps, lmk if you have more questions! Thanks again for watching :)
@@sithijamanage Thank you!!
Can you please share the Google Doc of all words?
Hey Pawan, thanks for watching. Send me an email and I will send it to you 👍
For quantitative reasoning section, you said to get the Magoosh Complete Guide to the GRE. But on the screen shows two books: that one and GRE Prep by Magoosh. Which is better to use?
Hi Chase, thanks for watching this video. I would probably go with the GRE Prep by Magoosh. Hope that helps!
Hi, I am from Bangladesh. Can you pls suggest me to get a phd scholarship in English. I am preparing myself for GRE.
Does this plan and books list still work for me in this time and month of 2024?
Hey Sunny! Yes, these materials still work because even though the test is shorter now, the material is unchanged.
Hi from where should I do the RC section in verbal? Is 5 lb good?
how helpful was manhattan quizlet rate out of 10?
Please share the link. Thank you for this video
Library Genesis is definitely *not* something to google
how get atleast 18 right in RC questions?
Is the math strategies book the same as all the quant?
Hey Alex, thanks for watching. Yes, the quantitative part of the GRE is covered in the Math parts of these books
Please I need the link for GRE Math Strategies, Manhattan Prep
You should definitely *not* search library genesis into google
Can you also suggest the sequence.
Like for qa and verbal we should start with magoosh and end with ets. So what is the in-between sequence of all other reources?
Hey Sakshi, hm,.. I would probably recommend starting with magoosh and ending with ets, and then I think it doesn't matter too much what you put in between. It's more just like what type of practice you'd like to get. Thanks for watching!
So you're telling me that's an Indian Accent
Hahahaha
Bro the problem is I am in 4th year now, and now we are having internship as well as placement season has started. I am way confused that now how to study GRE and internship as same time, I had joined GRE coaching, But the problem I was unable to keep up it coaching class as we had Internal Exam of college.
Can you share some tips to focus on GRE, and which online resources we should follow!!!!
Pls read my comment
I think spending a little bit of time every day is the best way to do it! Maybe you can spend one hour per day? And then do a practice exam on the weekend. The most important thing is being consistent. Thank you so much for watching, Pratik!

Thanks Nano Star
Your video was very helpful but could you suggest one single book that would contain all of it.
Hi Pratyush, thanks for watching. I guess if I had to choose one book that contains the material, it would be the Manhattan Prep 5lb book. Thanks!
@@sithijamanage okayyy thank youuu
How much price of all the books
hi sithija, i wanted to ask if it is necessary to buy latest 2022 edition of these books or older version from 2014 are the same , i have a 50 days to prepare hence, wanted to know if i need to buy new copies or if i can use my cousin's book
@@sithijamanage thanks , i will use the practice paper links you have given and search for some more .
How do you guys get 160+ in Verbal. I get 167 to 170 in Quant but verbal 150 to 153. I'm so sad because I've read a LOT of vocab but keep forgetting 😭
@@sithijamanage Thanks for the encouragement, I'll update with my score on June 18. I'm applying for a PhD in chemical engineering
So, as promised, I wrote today and had 313 unfortunately. 164 Quant, 149 Verbal. Intending to study Chemical Engineering. Any advice? Thanks a lot
@@sithijamanage Thank you
@@DaramolaOlanrewaju Please am planning to write next month. Am still scared 😭😭😭😭
@@godswillibe2216 All the best bro. I wrote mine at Workforce in Lagos. Being scared doesn't help, in fact it may affect your performance on test day. I'll encourage you to do your best and be confident.
Hi, I am looking for books to practice ONLY Text conpletion and Sentence Equivalence. I have completed 5 lb. Is ETS Verbal reasoning good enough? I have 1 month left for GRE and I want to invest in a book which will give me a good final practice (verbal)
Hey Roe, thanks for watching. ETS Verbal reasoning is probably the best book for final prep because the questions will be very similar to the questions you will see on exam day. Hope that helps!
Thanks
hi. that's a good video. Thank You. I want to ask specifically. I am very afraid of Quantative Reasoning. Can I get a score like yours if my overall preparation is 6 months from zero studying the material to the test? does that make sense? Thank You
Hi Rahma, sorry for the late reply! Thank you for watching. I think you can get a very good score. If you study consistently then you will be able to achieve a strong score after 6 months!
@@sithijamanage thank you so much.
Hi sitija,I wanted to know if Manhattan gre strategy prep guide is enough to reach your score?
Yeah I m talking about the 8 book set.There are a set of easy,medium and hard questions...So are these questions enough to prepare?
Your video is very helpful, How many hours you studied each week during these two month? Thank you
I think maybe cumulatively I studied less than 15 hours a week each week. Thanks for the question Jaccine!
hello, does the 5lb manhattan book have both practice problems for quant and verbal? Thanks
Hi Sohan, nice profile picture lol. Thanks for watching! Yes, the 5lb manhattan book does have both practice problems for quant and verbal
heyy im from pakistan. i got married in USA n gonna start my MS there. i have like couple months but GRE just seems too hard for me. i dont know where to start. i find vocab so hard cuz english isnt my 1st language. maths is just so hard cuz i'm leke medical sciences student, and its logic based which isso hard for me to understand. is there any way u could help me
Hi Arsh, thanks for watching! I think that the only way to get better is to study consistently. There are things that I struggle with too, and the only way that I will get better at them is by spending hours on hours trying to learn them. I think that if doing an MS in the USA is important to you, and if you need to score well on the GRE to get there, then you have to just start doing problems slowly. And each time you get a question wrong, you have to follow the solution to understand it. It may take a long time, but the only way is to practice doing questions. Hope that helps!
When should we start preparing for the exam . Like 5 months before the exam or more early??
Hey Yash, thanks for watching! I think 5 months would only be good if you are starting from a very very low score and trying to score at the very top or something. For most people, 2-3 months is the best amount of time (in my opinion). Thanks!
Hey Sithija. If we take multiple GRE attempts, wil the score card be showing multiple score cards or the latest one?
@@sithijamanage Hey ! Thank you. Yes it does help me! Cheers !!
