			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To become proficient in the Verbal Section of the GRE, a vast knowledge base of vocabulary words as well as their proper implementation is required. Following GRE vocabulary resources will aid your preparation for the GRE. Kindly read them thoroughly for better GRE verbal score.</p>
<p><strong>Prodigal</strong></p>
<p>One who expands money unneeded; given in abundance; example, 1- Don’t be a Prodigal, be judicious and save something for your future. 2- Any affluent person can become penniless if he keeps being a Prodigal.</p>
<p><strong>Fervid</strong></p>
<p>Characterized by intense emotion, extreme love or hate; extremely hot and burning; example, 1- He is a fervid patriot, he lost his elder son in a war still he is ready to admit his younger one in Army. 2- His fervid speech against corruption touched the hearts of millions.</p>
<p><strong>Lucid</strong></p>
<p>Easily understood, sane, transparent; example, 1-<em> </em>The people loved the lucid speech of the politician because his ideas and principles were understood by everybody in the town.  2- Lucid philosopher can turn fantasy into reality following predetermined conventions of society.</p>
<p><strong>Erudite</strong></p>
<p>Having or showing intense knowledge; example, 1- I would expect a person of your erudition to sort out this baffled situation. 2- I need to find a tutor with exceptional erudition, to make sure I know all, which is required to succeed in GRE exam.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How much time one should spend for a perfect score in GRE? I am being asked this question at least a zillion times. Let me tell you one thing, there is no fixed answer to this question. It takes lot of dedication and motivation, and if you’re a full time working professional or college student then it becomes even arduous. Still I have tried to figure out the answer. Kindly read following:</p>
<p><strong>How much time you require for GRE Preparation </strong></p>
<p>First of all ponder over the following questions then only decide how much time you would require:</p>
<p>What GRE score you want to achieve? (Pre check with your desired university for your favorite course)</p>
<p>Determine how much you can score with your current skill set. (Taking test is the best way to know your current level)</p>
<p>Actual test date.</p>
<p>Your test strategies and preparation time should depend on these three answers. Let’s see month wise your study schedule:</p>
<p>Let’s assume you have 4 months left then how much time you should devote to verbal section and AWA section.</p>
<p><strong>4 months study plan for verbal section </strong></p>
<p>During week days you must spend at least 3 hours. 2 hours for verbal and 1 hour for AWA practice. On weekends you can stretch this schedule up to 4 hours.</p>
<p>Morning schedule: devote atleast an hour for words and strategies. Engage yourself at least for half an hour either for an Issue essay or Argument essay. Evening time should be devoted for revision and for AWA essay which you skip in the morning.</p>
<p>Generally it is said that morning time is best for learning. Well, you can vice- versa this schedule if you are more of an Evening person. You can learn in the evening and revise the next morning. Similarly if you are working then see when you remain in your best state of mind to study. Plan your schedule accordingly.</p>
<p>Generally, students remain baffled during last days of their preparation, “I have 15 days left for my test what I should study now”. My inbox is inundated with such type of queries. Remember, Rome was not built in a day. Follow your study plan religiously and final days should be spared for revision and test.</p>
<p>At last, whatever is your study plan show full commitment towards it. These are crucial days for your bright future. Utilize them thoroughly for a fruitful result. Hey, it would be great if you share with me your study plan! I am eager to hear! Kindly write to us underneath this blog.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Tips to score well in GRE&#8217;s Verbal Section</strong></p>
<p>Following are some tips that you can follow in order to achieve complete 800 in verbal section:</p>
<p>Rule 1: Mug up all the 3500 words given in Barron’s book because mostly words that come in actual test are from Barron’s book. You can also study Peterson’s book. When you are done with Primary meaning of words then start learning Secondary meaning of words. ETS deliberately traps students with extremely tempting options. So you need to prepare thoroughly.</p>
<p>Rule 2: You should start your preparation at least six months before the actual test. Build a proper time table to study, devote at least 2 hours daily. If you are working then make your docket accordingly and follow it religiously.</p>
<p>Rule 3: To score decent in AWA section, do essay writing. Practice regularly as you can not improve your writing skills overnight.</p>
<p>Rule 4: Besides working on your GRE vocabulary list, you must also spend some time in enhancing your language and grammar.</p>
<p>Rule 5: Do Active Reading to solve comprehension questions .Active reading means  you should stop at every paragraph of passage, and think carefully whether you understand the meaning of  those lines or not.</p>
<p>Rule 6: Do practice one type of test question on week night, like Analogy Questions. Jot down your mistakes in a spreadsheet or on note cards, and find what types of mistakes you are making. Sometimes you might be rushing things and making stupid mistakes, and other times it may be grammar rules, etc.</p>
<p>Rule 7: There is no Negative Marking in GRE test, So, never leave any question unanswered .If you are not Sure or don’t know the correct option then you can do logical guess for answer( don’t depend on this tactic to solve all questions).</p>
<p>Rule 8: In GRE test you are not allow to go back and forth within any section so analyze thoroughly before you answer. Lack of concentration can erode away your valuable time.</p>
<p>Rule 9: Don’t try to learn all the words at previous day of your test .Make sure you are fresh enough to take test at the final day.</p>
<p>Rule 10: Never panic. Even if you see that your scores are not improving as you wanted or you are not learning a lot, stick in there. Never give up and you will learn all this things eventually. Don&#8217;t ever panic even in the exam .If the presented set of words are tough then the marking will be easy. So just try staying there. You guys will make it finally.</p>
<p>Rule 11: Even when you are in practice phase never follow a tactic to answer question by guess. Since the GRE test is a computer-adaptive test, if you answer incorrect at the beginning, the computer will provide you easier questions, which will reduce your chances to score well.</p>
<p>Wishing you all, success!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Changed GRE, Verbal Section, Question answers</strong></p>
<p>Hi All, we know that GRE is changing from August 1, 2011 .We wish to give you a feel about how changed verbal section will look, so it can clear the picture in your mind up to some extent. The revised GRE Verbal Reasoning section will consist following types of questions:</p>
<ol>
<li>Reading Comprehension</li>
<li>Text Completion</li>
<li>Sentence Equivalence</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Reading Comprehension (RC)</strong></p>
<p>Changed RC section will consist of 3 types of questions:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Select one or more answer      choice:</strong> In this newly introducing multiple choice type questions,      students will be provided with three answer choices, and student will be      asked to choose all the correct answer choices. Correct answer choice      could be one, two or all three .So, students will have a privilege to choose      more than one option. To score excellent in these types of questions      students should focus on choosing only correct options as there would be      no credit for a fractionally correct option. Example:</li>
</ol>
<p><em> (Examples mentioned below is from www.ets.org)</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">Reviving the practice of using elements of popular music in classical composition, an approach that had been in hibernation in the United States during the 1960s, composer Philip Glass (born 1937) embraced the ethos of popular music without imitating it. Glass based two symphonies on music by rock musicians David Bowie and Brian Eno, but the symphonies&#8217; sound is distinctively his. Popular elements do not appear out of place in Glass&#8217;s classical music, which from its early days has shared certain harmonies and rhythms with rock music. Yet this use of popular elements has not made Glass a composer of popular music. His music is not a version of popular music packaged to attract classical listeners; it is high art for listeners steeped in rock rather than the classics.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">The passage suggests that Glass&#8217;s work displays which of the following qualities?</span> <span style="color: #808080">A return to the use of      popular music in classical compositions</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">1) An attempt to elevate      rock music to an artistic status more closely approximating that of      classical music</span>.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888">2) </span><span style="color: #808080"><span style="color: #888888">A</span> long-standing      tendency to incorporate elements from two apparently disparate musical      styles</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080"><strong>Answer: A and C</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080"><strong>(Answer choice is more than one choice)</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>2.  Select-in-Passage:</strong> This is also a newly entered section in RC. This type of question will require to choose a sentence from the passage that meets the certain description. These types of questions will definitely give an idea to GRE evaluators to judge how well a student can understand the RC passage. Example:</p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">Select the sentence from the above mention passage distinguishing two ways of integrating rock and classical music.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080"><strong>Answer:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">&#8220;His music is not a version of popular music packaged to attract classical listeners; it is high art for listeners steeped in rock rather than the classics.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><strong>3. Select one answer choice: </strong>GRE‘s Reading Comprehension section will still go with traditional format, where students have to choose one option from provided five options.</p>
<p><strong>Text Completion questions</strong></p>
<p>The Text Completion question will include a passage comprising one to five sentences with one to three blanks .There will be three to five options per blank. Students have to choose the one option from the provided options to fill in the blank. While choosing the option, student must remember the context of passage to choose the correct option. Example:</p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">Vain and prone to violence, Caravaggio could not handle success: the more his (1)__________ as an artist increased, the more (2)__________ his life became.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">Blank 1: temperance, notoriety, eminence</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">Blank 2: tumultuous, providential, dispassionate</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080"><strong>Answer: eminence</strong><strong> and </strong><strong>tumultuous</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Sentence Equivalence Questions </strong></p>
<p>These types of questions will consist of a single sentence with one blank only. Student will be provided with six answer choices and from the six choices students have to pick just two answers .Do bear in mind there will be no credit for partially correct answer.</p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">Although it does contain some pioneering ideas, one would hardly characterize the work as __________.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080">1) orthodox</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080">2) eccentric</span><br />
<span style="color: #888888">3)</span><span style="color: #808080"><span style="color: #888888">or</span>iginal</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080">4)trifling</span><br />
<span style="color: #888888">5)</span><span style="color: #808080"><span style="color: #888888">conven</span>tional</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080">6)innovative</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080"><strong>Answer: C and F</strong></span></p>
<p>These all changes that we have discussed above will be in effect from 1 August, 2011. If you are planning to take GRE before that, then you see same old pattern. Kindly post your views, comments below this blog.</p>
<p>Wishing you all, success!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>In verbal analogy questions students are provided with a pair of words having some meaningful relationship. This relationship between words is generally accurate and definite. To answer analogy questions students have to select a pair of words, which outdo all the available options and present the best connection in regard to main word expression. Consider the following example:</p>
<p>Sedative: Drowsiness</p>
<p>You feel sleepy or drowsy after taking sedative or sleeping pills.</p>
<p>Anesthetic: Numbness</p>
<p>You become numb after taking anesthetic drug</p>
<p>Lawyer: Courtroom</p>
<p>The place of lawyer is in classroom.</p>
<p>All these above mentioned pairs have an explicit relationship, and it is obvious that to constitute the relationship, a meaningful sentence is to be formed taking both words into consideration.</p>
<p><strong>Types of relationships for analogy questions</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>In analogy questions of GRE, the relationship between the words takes priority over the meanings of the words. The most common analogy relationships include:</p>
<p><strong>Definition</strong><strong>:</strong> This type of analogy relation gives exact meaning or definition of the other word.</p>
<p>Eg. Meteorologist: Weather</p>
<p>(Meteorologist is a person who predicts weather)</p>
<p><strong>Degree of intensity:</strong> One word of expression shows mild whereas other word conveys a more severe aspect of same phenomenon.</p>
<p>Eg. Braying: Tittering</p>
<p>(Both words are different aspect of laugh braying means laugh loud whereas tittering means laugh nervously.)</p>
<p><strong>Gender: </strong>One word is for male and other one represents its female counterpart.</p>
<p>Eg. Mare: Goat</p>
<p>( A female horse is a mare whereas  stallion is a male horse)</p>
<p><strong>Part to Whole</strong>: In this type of analogy, the first word is part of the second word or vice- versa.</p>
<p>Eg. Soldier: Regiment</p>
<p>( A soldier can be part of  the regiment ).</p>
<p><strong>Antonyms: </strong>In this type of analogy relation one word is the antonym of other.</p>
<p>Eg. Opaque: Transparency</p>
<p>(Both words are antonym to each other).</p>
<p><strong>Synonyms: </strong>In these types of analogies both words convey similar meaning.</p>
<p>Eg. Beautiful: Gorgeous</p>
<p>(Both words are synonyms to each other).</p>
<p><strong>Some useful tips to solve analogy questions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Create      logical relationship between words.</li>
<li>Omit options that do not have a clear      and reasonably necessary relationship to the main word.</li>
<li>Do      logical guess if you think more than one option could be a correct option.</li>
<li>Furthermore, contemplate about secondary      meanings of words, as well as alternative parts of speech.</li>
<li>Beware of misleading options. They are      put deliberately to confuse you.</li>
</ul>
<p>In total there are 11 analogy questions to answer in the GRE’s verbal section. Analogies can be improved with little bit practice, and could be helpful in scoring well. Do share with us your views, comments on this blog by filling up the feedback section.</p>
<p>Good luck with GRE exam!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><em>Not knowing these words hinders your GRE preparation</em></strong><span>. These are the words that keep appearing in GRE time and again. Ineffective methods of learning will make you forget these words faster than you learn. But here are some really effective and proven methods of learning words faster. You will not only memorize these words but also lock them in your memory forever. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"> </p>
<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span>Acrimonious</span></strong><span>: The word ‘acrimonious’ suggests something that is acrid in taste. Acrid is being bitter and caustic. Acrimonious is usually used to suggest the way in which a speech is made. An acrimonious speech is a bitter, harsh and sarcastic speech. The word is even applicable to written form of communication. </span><strong></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span>Scurrilous</span>: </strong>A ‘scurrilous’ comment is a deeply vituperative/abusive/biting comment on someone. The word again is used mostly in spoken and written communication.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Esoteric:</strong> Have you read the poems of Metaphysical poets? If you have read then you understand that their poems are full of esoteric allusions. The word ‘esoteric’ means something that is comprehensible only by a select few. A few high frequency synonyms of the word are impenetrable, recondite, mysterious, cryptic and arcane.</li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Decadent: Decadent </strong>is anything that is immoral in quality. ‘He led a decadent life’&#8230;means his life had no morals or he was an immoral person<strong>. </strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Lugubrious</strong>: Lugubrious is a word that suggests sadness and melancholia. A narrative style could be lugubrious. It is something that generates a gloomy and lachrymose environment around.<span> </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Iconoclastic</strong>: Icon is a symbol. The root ‘clast’ means to break something. Hence iconoclastic is suggestive of breaking established norms and conventions. I hope the word now settles indelibly in your memory.</li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Magniloquent</strong>:<span> </span>The root ‘loq’ has got to do with expression. Look at the words eloquent, grandiloquent. They all relate to speech style. ‘Magnum’ again in Greek means great, grand and big. Hence magniloquent is a bombastic, pompous and boastful expression.</li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Terse: </strong>Terse is an expression that is precise. It is something that is abrupt and accurate<strong> </strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Fatuous: </strong>Fatuous means idiotic, stupid and silly. A fatuous comment is a comment that is ridiculous and dim-witted<strong>. </strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong>Incisive: </strong>Incisive is sharp. A sharp and that too a razor sharp comment is an incisive comment. An incisive comment can cause an incision on the mind and the soul. An incision is a cut a laceration.</li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Things that I suggest time and again!!</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><em>Act on these words. Passive reading doesn’t help whatsoever</em></strong>!! You have to work on them effectively. Jot them down in a note book, pull out your dictionary from the shelf, look for the meaning, understand the words and use them in sentences. Date all these words rather. Spend some substantial time with them. They are really extraordinary and interesting. Try to recollect many visuals that relate to a specific word from the above list. Believe me, these are the words that keep appearing in GRE’s (Graduate Record Examination) Verbal Ability Section. (Antonyms, Analogies and Sentence Completion). <strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Some essential GRE Aerobics:</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in; text-align: justify;"><strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Do not just read but work on these words. Use a notebook to jot them down and a dictionary to understand the meaning and the context better. As I always tell: Utter the words aloud- each word five times!!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Obligatory things to do: </strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.75in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span>1.<span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none;"> </span></span>Work with the word<strong>. </strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.75in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span>2.<span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none;"> </span></span>Expand its meaning into a suitable context.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.75in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span>3.<span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none;"> </span></span>Relate it to the person or situation you know<strong>. </strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.75in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span>4.<span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none;"> </span></span>Share the word with your friends, colleagues</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.75in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><em><span>5.<span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none;"> </span></span></em><strong><em>Try to pronounce the word aloud at least five times</em></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">These high energy and high frequency words will keep you motivated for a lifetime. What you just need to do is to trust their beauty and keep remembering them every now and then. Do get back to us with queries in case you have any.<span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Wishing you all, success!!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.75in; text-align: justify;"><strong></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><strong><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">The words that are explained in this blog are the words that certainly appear in GRE</span></strong><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">. These are the words that need to be memorized indispensably. It has already been stated in earlier blogs that nouns, verbs adjectives and adverbs alone appear in GRE. The words that appear in this blog are mostly adjectives and adverbs. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span>These are the words that you always find in GRE. And when you are working on any previous years’ GRE papers, you wish you knew the meanings of these words. You also feel bad when you do not easily recollect the meanings. Subsequently you start blaming yourself for adopting not-so-effective learning techniques. Don’t you?! </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">This is an opportunity indeed to research on a few very important words pertaining to GRE Vocabulary and committing them permanently to your memory. <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">I would mention once again that the words we are practicing in these blogs are high frequency words and you will certainly find them in the GRE. <strong><em></em></strong></span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><strong><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">Didactic</span></strong><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">: The word didactic is an adjective. Didactic is something that is educational, instructive in purpose. For example: Her poems are <strong><em>didactic</em></strong>. It means that her poems have instructional value. I hope the meaning is now clear. </span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">

<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><strong>Banal:</strong> Banal means boring. Something that doesn’t trigger interest because we have been exposed to it so many times. A film’s plot could be banal. A story could be banal. Just think of some situations/contexts where this word could rightly fit in. <strong></strong></span></span></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></strong></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">

</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">There’s no escape from these words if you want a grand score in GRE. You need to work with these words for a substantial time frame. I strongly recommend you all to read the other blogs on Vocabulary learning in order to memorize all these words even more effectively. </span></p>

Use a notebook to jot them down and a dictionary to delve deeper into the meaning. As I always tell: Utter the words aloud- each word five times!! </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong><em>How do I remember all the 3500 high frequency words of GRE</em></strong>? Many students are both perturbed and frustrated by this question. The task is arduous indeed, since the number ‘3500’ is huge. You need to sweat out many an hour to commit these words to your memory. These words help you get an awesome score in GRE. They also help you during your stay on the University campus. The Native Americans use these words frequently. For this reason these words are asked in GRE.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">Powerful Techniques that help you remember all the 3500 words of GRE:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">These are some proven Vocabulary learning techniques. Research says that many students have benefited from them. We have mentioned these techniques many a time in our blogs. We now feel the need for discussing them here, exclusively! For convenience let us call Vocabulary Technique as VT.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>VT 1: Work with the Word</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">A word is not just something that has to be seen from an examination perspective. You need to work with the word. The word has to become a tool in your hand. You need to apply it at the right time and right situation. You need to get into a relationship with it. Spend some considerable time with it. Only then will it be retained in your memory. Owing to a commitment like this you need to plan your GRE preparation well in advance.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>Fact 1</strong>: You can never memorize the high frequency GRE words in 1 month’s time. You need a ‘minimum’ 6 month’s time frame.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>VT 2: Expand its meaning into a suitable context</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">A word exists only in context. The beauty of the word is realized in context alone. So whenever you learn/memorize a new word use it in context immediately. Not a single context. Use it in all possible contexts and situations. Paint your imagination deeper and darker. Think where all the word can be applicable. Believe me when you use a word in multiple contexts like these you will never forget it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>Fact 2</strong>: ‘Mugging up’ GRE High Frequency words vaguely is a very bad thing to do!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>VT 3: Relate it to the person or situation you know</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">Adjectives are best learned this way. Adjectives generally suggest a person’s trait. When you look at a word like ‘loquacious’, which means ‘talkative’ you can immediately think of a relative/friend/colleague/neighbor who is loquacious. Relate the word to that person and you will never forget it. And whenever you see that person you will instantly remember the word too. Isn’t that great?!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>Fact 3:</strong> The actual GRE Verbal test has ‘only’ adjectives/nouns/verbs!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>VT 4:<span> </span>Share the word with your friends, colleagues </strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">Sharing doubles the knowledge! When you know a word, its context the next best thing is sharing it with your buddies. I strongly suggest until the day of your GRE test organize weekly <strong>‘Vocabulary Review Meets’</strong>. During these meets share all the new words that you learned and let your friends share their words with you. This way you will be unendingly adding to your long list of Vocabulary. Great once again! Isn’t it?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>Fact 4</strong>: Never prepare for GRE in isolation. You will never know where you stand in competition!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>VT 5:<span> </span>Try to pronounce the word aloud at least five times</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">A word’s pronunciation is as important as its meaning. Some words are not pronounced the way they are written. For example consider the word ‘ennui’ which means ‘boredom’. Ennui is pronounced as ‘Onwee’. Now is that not interesting? Keep handy a good dictionary that also suggests pronunciation. When you learn a new word, look at the pronunciation aspect immediately. Jot that down in your notebook in the way you can easily understand it. Talk about pronunciation too during your weekly <strong>‘Vocabulary Review Meets’</strong>. This will keep the meets interesting and happening.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;"><strong>Fact 5:</strong> Knowing the word Pronunciation is as important as knowing its meaning!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify;">Learning Vocabulary is fun. Do not make it a stressful process. Do not get intimidated looking at the exhaustive word list that is quintessential for your GRE preparation. Practicing the above mentioned techniques will certainly help you memorize many words. A few diligent students have already shared with us some powerful techniques to memorize GRE Vocabulary. You can share your techniques too. Share them here with us. And do leave your valuable comment when you complete reading this blog on Vocabulary Learning.</p>
