I believe i can fly. I believe i can touch the sky.
But a TWO months ago i didn't feel the same.
I was worried about my RC speed , The word list was all jumbled up in my mind.
Only confidence was coming from my concepts of Quant (Speed was still a problem)
These are the things that brought a change in just TWO months

I'll write everything in steps

Step 1 : PowerPrep : Helped me to know where i stand.
Step 2 : Barron's and BigBook : helped me to realize " GRE questions pattern and
Style of questions"

Hurdles

a) Still I was not able to memorize the bloody wordlist.
b) My speed at the attempting questions was less then tortoise.
c) Could not find even a single "ADAPTIVE GRE STYLE TEST" on net.

Step 3 : Regular google search for material.
Step 4 : Took a program at GREedge.com

a)I never wanted to go for a coaching class so i decided to go for this.
(Its started by passouts of Stanford and Purdue) as my dream
Destination is STANFORD , so i decided to give it a try.
b) Got a Study plan from them, based on my free test performance.
c) The cycle was simple : I took a test -> Got a feedback -> They gave
me material to practice - > Doubt solving session online -> I took one more test.
d) Surprisingly they even monitored my click and scrolls and told me i was spending more time on geometry questions.

Here is the result. I got 1600.
Thanks to this system invented by Stanford people, I might be able to go to Stanford myself.

Rock On.

I had 1300 score.

I studied with Kaplan and Princeton Review books, plus I bought the gre vocabulary package from myvobu.com

Good luck all you guys.

Man you are good! I got 1530. Math 790 and Verbal 740. I only used Dranb though, and I think it's helpful (at least for me) because it's a single source and I don't need to buy different books everywhere. But your 1600 apparently beats everyone!
