Hey Jay,
The GRE text completion section evaluates how you analyze and assess data presented to you based on your reasoning aptitudes. They accomplish this by omitting crucial terms from brief passages. Students need to fill up with the help of the remaining details in the passage to make a rational and significant sentence.

You can expect roughly 12 text-completion questions with six text-completion-type questions in every sub-section. Likewise, the GRE text-completion questions usually remain classified into three sections that are as follows-

Single-blank: These text completion questions have a single blank that you need to fill up. In addition, you will have to pick the correct option from five given terms for sentences or passages with a single blank. Double-blank: In double-blank text completion questions, you must fill two blanks. You will have to pick the correct answer from the three given alternatives. Triple-blank: Triple-blank text completion questions have three blanks that you must fill in. Moreover, you will have to choose the correct word from the three options.

Also, remember that you have to pick the correct answer for every blank for questions with either a single blank or a double blank to score better.

Hey Anamika,
For use throughout the quantitative component of the GRE, there is a straightforward on-screen GRE calculator available. In the quantitative reasoning sections, you have the option of showing or hiding the on-screen calculator so that you don’t have to use it for every question.

The GRE calculator also has a feature that lets you precisely transfer answers from the display to the answer box. This function may be useful.

Hey Manas,
GRE Quantitative Comparison is one of the most important sections of the exam. It tests your ability to analyze information and make comparisons between two quantities. It is also called Data Interpretation.

Quantitative comparison questions ask you to compare and contrast two quantities. The answer choices are typically presented in a table with two rows and two columns. A key difference between quantitative comparison questions and other types of GRE Quant questions is that there aren’t any answers that are obviously correct or incorrect; instead, you must choose between two options that are equally valid but yield different results.

Hey Natasha!

The most important thing to bear in mind is that a good GRE score for you will be the one that is high enough to get you into the program or the university you wish to attend.

GRE scores are often used by a university’s admission committee to rule out the weakest applicants. This means that a low score may tank your chances, but a score beyond the program criteria won’t help you a lot if you lack another essential component desired by the admission committee.

A high GRE score may cover up for minor weaknesses such as a GPA slightly below the program average, but it won’t make up for any glaring deficits in your application profile.

In addition, a great GRE total score will enable you to qualify for scholarships where GRE scores may be the only meaningful way to compare applicants across different disciplines.

For GRE analytical writing section:

Make sure to structure the essay in a format. Do not forget to proofread and edit after writing your first draft. Practice writing on diverse topics as much as you can.

You can find some sample essays here to understand the format better.

@tara-sharma
For improving the GRE quant score, make a formulae sheet to memorize the formulae.
Take regular mock tests and analyze them well. It will help you know your mistakes. Learn time management by taking timed tests.

Here's my personal tip-
Write the entire essay first. Don’t listen to the critical side of your brain just now. Once you’ve finished your first draft, you can always come back and edit.

When it comes to the “Analyze an Issue” task, they see if a student-

Forms a clear and thoughtful opinion on the issue
Comes up with cogent arguments and examples to support the opinion
Is able to sustain a well-focused, well-organized analysis, connecting ideas coherently
Conveys ideas using effective vocabulary and sentence variety
For the “Analyze an Argument” task, they see if a student-

Forms a clear understanding of the argument
Develops ideas cogently, organizes them logically, and connects them well
Comes up with coherent arguments and examples to support the opinion
Conveys ideas using effective vocabulary and sentence variety

GRE Analyze an Issue task-
The best way to teach is to praise positive actions and ignore negative ones.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position. GRE Analyze an Argument task-
“To reverse a decline in listener numbers, our owners have decided that WWAC must change from its current rock-music format. The decline has occurred despite population growth in our listening area, but that growth has resulted mainly from people moving here after their retirement. We must make listeners of these new residents. We could switch to a music format tailored to their tastes, but a continuing decline in local sales of recorded music suggests limited interest in music. Instead we should change to a news and talk format, a form of radio that is increasingly popular in our area.”
Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.

Here's some more-
Artless
Meaning - without cunning or deceit
Blinkered
Meaning - To have a limited perspective
Maudlin
Meaning - Overly emotional rambling.
Invective
Meaning - Abusive language
Remonstrate
Meaning - To make objections while pleading

Here are a few tips that will help you with GRE Analytical Writing-

Keep a standard essay structure in mind – Introduction, Problem Statement, Solution, Benefits of the solution, Drawbacks of the solution, Conclusion. Dedicate each para to one heading. Write the entire essay first. Once you’ve finished your first draft, you can always come back and edit. Practice, practice, practice!
