GRE Snacks

I cannot thank you enough for this podcast! The strategies you share are total game changers. I took the GRE before my Masters program 6 years ago and studied a bit here and there. I did very mediocre and got a score in the low 50th percentile for verbal and worse for quant and writing. I am applying to another graduate program that is more competitive than my previous Masters degree program and in typical fashion left studying until the last minute (2 weeks prior to the test). I knew I wouldn’t be able to learn and retain much content in 2 weeks so I focused on strategies instead. I took a power prep practice test and scored similarly to my test 6 years ago. After listening to all of your podcast episodes and looking through the free information on your site I scored 165/96th percentile in verbal, 156 in quant, and 91st percentile in writing which is believe was an overall score of 5. My program primarily focuses on the verbal score so I am feeling confident! Confession: I still listen to new episodes of the podcast even though I have no plans to take the GRE again.

Guys. Thank you so much! I often drive and need a way to study safely when I can’t do practice problems and YouTube. Love the unique approach you provide to the personal/mental side of the GRE. However, I often have trouble hearing you both! I think the audio quality of the mics might not be best suited for podcasting. I know they make some good ones on Amazon that don’t cost a lot. Or, even AirPods have great quality when up close. That’s the only thing holding this back from being my absolute favorite GRE prep podcast! But, again, thank you both so much for helping me study.

I have been studying for the GRE for a couple of years on and off and for once I feel like I have an edge to break into the 90th percentile in quant after discovering these guys and the stellar system. Orion is really incredible and had a unique strategy for test-taking that is both practical and brainy at the same time. Thanks guys!

I am so happy that I came across this podcast! This has made studying for the GRE way less stressful. Will definitely be using the achievable GRE prep online service.
