Within your Online Student Center you’ll find the following sections. Let’s take a brief look at each.

Introduction to GRE Preparation

Before your course begins, there are a couple essential tasks you must accomplish.

First, you need a baseline assessment of your performance on the GRE. Follow the link to download the ETS PowerPrep II software and take one of the two official practice exams. Make sure to set aside the time necessary to take the test all the way through without distractions if at all possible. After you are finished, review and diagnose your performance with an eye to your strengths and weaknesses. This initial work will pay tremendous dividends as you decide how to focus your efforts during your preparation.

Second, review the pre-course primers thoroughly. They cover the quantitative and verbal fundamentals that will be the foundation of further progress in your GRE course and later success on the GRE. You'll find the following primers in this section of the OSC:

Online Pre-Course Arithmetic Primer: If you will be preparing for the Quantitative Reasoning component of the GRE, covering this primer should be your first order of business. Cover it thoroughly.
PowerScore GRE Arithmetic Primer: This is the second pre-work assignment referenced in the Introduction. You may print this PDF file out for ease of reading. Along with the Online Primer, this covers the concepts fundamental to success on Quant.
PowerScore GRE Verbal Primer: You may print this PDF file out for ease of reading. This document covers some of the essentials of building a strong vocabulary for success on GRE Verbal. Building vocabulary is one of the most time-consuming aspects of preparing for GRE Verbal. It is in your interest to start right now to build the powerful vocabulary skills needed to make dramatic improvements on GRE Verbal.

Finally, once you receive your course books, begin working through The Official Guide to the GRE . The most important sections to cover at the beginning of your preparation are Chapter 1: About the GRE, Chapter 2: GRE Analytical Writing, Chapter 3: GRE Verbal Reasoning, Chapter 5: GRE Quantitative Reasoning, and Chapter 7: GRE Math Review. The other sections can be covered in advance but can provide excellent practice material to reinforce the concepts covered in your course.
