<p>Did anyone have a slightly/somewhat deficient vocabulary, use Barron's list, and significantly up his/her scores? I don't have much of a problem with the passages, just the vocab. in them and stuff like that so I'm doing Barron's in hope of getting a 750 or so.
I don't have DH either, and can't get it in time for the test to study it, and I've heard Barron's has all its words minus like 20-30 or something, which I can live with I suppose.</p>
<p>Well I’m not expert at all, but I’ve heard using the several thousand word lists are important, but it’s important that only the high frequency words be used later on.</p>
<p>DarkKnight did a study on this. You can find it in one of his threads; I remember the list doing just below direct hits, which is a measly 400 words :D</p>
<p>Direct Hits is certainly the most efficient resource.</p>
