Week 1 - Day 7

It's now time to take a practice test. For that, you have two options:
-
ETS PowerPrep 1
This is what we recommend most users to take, as it's an official ETS practice test. If you're stuck, try watching this video.-
Go the ETS GRE website.
-
Create an account if you haven’t already done so.
-
Click on “Shop for Test Preparation.”
-
“Buy” the shorter PowerPrep 1 Test for $0. This being untimed, ETS won't provide a score, but don't worry - we've provided a way below for you to get your score.
-
Take the test.
-
Skip the essay section.
-
Do both Verbal and both Quant sections (total time: approximately 1.5 hours). As this is untimed, please time yourself. 18/23 minutes for verbal section 1/2 respectively; 21/26 for quant section 1 and 2 respectively. If you have extra time, adjust them accordingly.
-
-
-
GregMAT Full Practice Test 1
This can be used if you've already taken PP1 (from a prior attempt), or want to conserve the ETS tests (since there's so few of them). However, note that these are not ETS questions (i.e, us at GregMAT write them), which means that the quality will not be as good as ETS, and the score you get may not be as accurate as well either. To take the GregMAT Full Practice Test, go to this page. As with PP1, skip the writing. -
REVIEW
-
For GregMAT Full Practice Test 1, answers are available when you review the quiz (as videos for each problem)
-
If you are taking the untimed version for PP1, use this form to convert your raw scores into the 130-170 scaled score for quant and verbal.
-
REFLECTION
-
Make a list of your strengths and weaknesses.
-
NOTE: This lesson plan assumes that you need help in ALL areas of the test, but, if the PowerPrep 1 result indicated otherwise, you can adjust the study plan accordingly.
-
FINAL NOTE: Don’t get too upset if your score is not where you want it to be. Remember — this is just a diagnostic test. It’s not the final result.
