Hello everyone, I need help for GRE prep. I am applying for MSN in fall 2012 and want to start GRE soon. I saw that kaplan and other company are expensive and so decided to do on my own. I heard The new GRE is different than old one. I am not too familiar with GRE also. But can anyone give me idea how should i start and which is the good book for GRE?

go and visit USEF regularly so that you will know about the latest GRE book. You can also get other loads of information from USEF. Its worth it. Be communicative and make other friends in USEF (who are also in your similar situation). Get a latest GRE book or make a copy of the book if someone has it. Dont study 8-10 hours straight and rest for other 3-4 days. Invest at least 3 hours a day for GRE words and so on. Think about at least 3 University while applying for MS degree. Dont just stick with one University i.e MSN. I assume MSN is the University name.  You can send your GRE score for free to 3 Universities. What if MSN does not accept your application?

to the best of my knowledge MSN don't require GRE score... I am hoping you are not aiming to apply Yale Univsersity ... otherwise most of the MSN school don't ask for GRE score. Correct me if i am wrong. thanks

Hello Times, I am not sure in the past. But now they require in most of the universities. Well Im in texas, University of Texas at arlington does not require if gpa>3.0 but it ask for 1 year experience and its expensive also. But,if I want to work as Research assistant, it requires GRE. If I work as RA, I will get tution deduction. Some other universities in texas also require GRE. I found that Barron's book is the best but I really want to hear the experiences in taking GRE. I have very few friends who gave GRE.

do u have any obligation to stay in Texas.... I know couple university like U of M (Minnesota).... UNMC (NEBRASKA) and many other university they don't require GRE and at the same time those medical school are top ranking medical schools. Try it and at the same time u can also take GRE to make your horizon wide.
