   I don’t think every word in your word list is well defined (I mean some of the words are not accompanied by exact and primary meanings).

4. AnuVeluri on August 26th, 2009 2:19 pm

   Could you please list those words?

   Regards,

6. sunil kumar kamal on October 10th, 2009 7:38 pm

   I need to ask about the gre preparation time.
   How much average time is required to prepare for the test?
   when should i give the test so that i can apply for the universities?
   pls reply

7. AnuVeluri on October 11th, 2009 3:28 pm

   It depends Sunil, if you are a quick learner you will take lesser time for preparation. There’s no limit as such. I think a year’s time should be decent. Since GRE score is valid for 5 years I think you can decide your application judiciously. I mean in a way that u can submit your application package at once, either for spring or fall admission..

8. Admin on October 12th, 2009 5:35 pm

   3 to 6 months at least

   best time to take test in july-august.. so that you time to think about universities.. prepare you essay and recommendation letters.. and apply for Fall deadlines.

   I hope this will help..

   cheers,
   Team
