I thought about it, but ultimately decided that it was too easy.

This is true. I take what I can get.</p>
<p>I used the colon correctly:</p>
<p>The second usage is to separate a title and a subtitle. When the title needs a further explanation, a subtitle can be used.

<p>I used the word Who's Correctly:</p>
<p>The word who's is a contraction. It stands for who is or who has.</p>

<p>So, I forgot a Q-mark and a few capitols...sheesh guys, lighten up ;-)</p>
<p>tom,</p>
<p>Actually, because your question was one of possession, the correct word is "whose."</p>
<p>As in, "Whose _____ is the best?"</p>
<p>Think about it. Does "Who is _____ is the best?" make sense?</p>

<p>So wait, you forgot about congress in Washington, D.C.?</p>
<p>nspeds,</p>
<p>Technically, "Congress," being a proper noun, should be capitalized. :p</p>

<p>so, who's still not "palled" from going over the barron's 3500 list? i'm just wondering whether the summer gre test-takers are still on it, because this process seems so arduous. i just finished list #35, and i have exactly 30 days to prepare for my test. </p>
<p>however, i'm doing much better on my vocab section now that i have memorized 2/3 of the word lists.</p>
<p>The Chinese has a Big Red Book for GRE vocab which is several times of the Barrons list (complate with a music CD for pronunciations). But that is excessive, IMO.</p>
<p>... just trying using some of the words frequently, for example while posting on cc :D</p>
<p>One of my friends who came from Korea about a year and a half ago spent 6 months taking the prep course for verbal. He ended scoring 95% speaking very limited everyday English and having significant troubles reading scholarly articles. This shows that if you put enough time and approach it correctly, you can score very nicely. Perhaps the trick is not to memorize multitudes of words, but remember the roots and prefixes?</p>
<p>My vote goes to Barrons... very exhaustive vocab list.</p>
<p>**pmat</p>
<p>I'm using flash cards to learn vocab and latin roots, prefixes and suffixes. I'm starting with the 333 words that show up on the GRE the most, putting a new set of words and a mix of roots, prefixes, and suffixes on flashcards every week and taking the flashcards with me everywhere. I plan to have learned all of those within the next three weeks. Once I've learned those, I'm going to start on the 3500 master words' lists. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>When I took the GRE, I didn't find the vocab list helped all that much. I didn't actually see many of the words on the vocab list on the test. What helped much more was studying affixes and root words.</p>
<p>Kaplan's flashcards and PR's wordlist are a lot more manageable than Barron's. Besides those two sources,I only memorized Barron's "high frequency words" on its 3500 words list plus the roots, and I got 670.</p>

<p>There are better sites out there that aren't so tough to navigate or use. I like:</p>
<p>Word</a> lists for Graduate Record Examination (GRE) Verbal Vocabulary</p>
<p>GRE math is easy for me,but verb is too difficult.someone help me?I'm a Chinese</p>
<p>Actually, there is a great site called majortests.com. It has a great compilation of word lists and alot of practice. I used it religiously and it greatly boosted my GRE verbal score!</p>
<p>You'll thank me for this...</p>
<p>There's one GRE site that's second to none. It's includes all the words from the known word lists + combines definitions from best sources + includes audio pronunciation (two voices) + has a flashcard mode, which is the most effective way of learning new words. This site is:</p>
<p>[url="<a href="http://gredic.com/%22%5DGREdic.com%5B/url">http://gredic.com/"]GREdic.com[/url</a>]</p>
<p>Besides the big list they also have a list of 299 frequently occurring words at [url="<a href="http://grehotlist.com/%22%5DGREhotlist.com%5B/url">http://grehotlist.com/"]GREhotlist.com[/url</a>]. As far as I can tell this is the same list of words as PR's hit parade, but with gredic.com's nice interface and intelligently compiled definitions, you won't want to look at PR again!</p>
<p>Hats off, GREdic.com!</p>
<p>If you are applying to grad school in a technical field, do they really care very much about your verbal score?</p>
