<p>I've been scoring like 730~760 on Math section of practice exams, and was wondering if there were any good books I can buy that will help me get 800 on GRE math?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>By practice exam, I mean 800score.com. I score around 780~800 on some of the easier tests like Kaplan, Barrons, Powerprep, or Princeton review.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, I have heard real GRE is significantly harder than practice exams, so scoring low on some of the exams makes me anxious.</p>
<p>Any good prep book for quantitative section would be appreciated.</p>
<p>Hi, Sang54 - too bad nobody has replied to this thread, because I was about to create one just like it! I have 2 math-devoted practice books, by Kaplan & Barron’s, and will begin tackling them for the next few weeks. I’ve pretty much mastered the verbal, so that’s next.</p>
<p>How have you been doing with your studying?</p>
<p>I actually found kaplan’s practice tests harder than the real GRE. I scored significantly higher on the real one, at least.</p>
<p>Is your problem with the math having enough time? Or maybe there’s a certain concept that you’re having issues with? If timing is the issue, you should probably just continue doing practice tests until you can speed things up just a bit.</p>
<p>You know what I find funny? In the latest REA GRE prep book, it states flat out that negative exponents won’t be on the GRE. Yet in a GRE prep course I took this summer, we went over them a lot.</p>
<p>So: are negative exponents on the GRE?</p>
<p>Yes. They are.</p>
<p>CaseSpartan,</p>
<p>When you say the Kaplan practice tests, are you referring to the Kaplan Math Workbook?</p>
<p>Nova’s Gre Prep has a great review of math and a lot of practice questions.
I also recommend Math Review for Standardized Tests</p>
<p>I STRONGLY recommend the Nova Gre Prep book and the Barron’s book.</p>
<p>Use the Barron’s book along with ETS’s math review PDF as your beginner resource. After that, finish the Quant section of the Nova book.</p>
<p>If this doesn’t work, nothing will.</p>
<p>If you’re in one of their cities, the GRE Bootcamp Math Review can be helpful: [GRE</a> Bootcamp Math Review](<a href=“http://GREBootcamp.com%5DGRE”>http://GREBootcamp.com).</p>
<p>GRE big book and POWERPREP are the best. check [GRE</a> Preparation Books-Mission GRE](<a href=“http://www.missiongre.com/grebooks.php]GRE”>http://www.missiongre.com/grebooks.php) for GRE book reviews</p>
<p>First of all, a physical copy of the bigbook is hard to find. The ones floating around online only have the verbal and for good reason–the bigbook quantitative is too easy.</p>
<p>Powerprep + ETS math practice pdf file, Barron’s as a starter, and Nova GRE Prep Course or Nova GRE Math bible are the way to go.</p>
<p>I agree with mastermoe…nothing in the market can beat nova gre math.</p>
