Well, I threatened to do this, and I got the dreaded shopping trip out of the way this morning, so I officially have no reason not to. Little bits and pieces of advice for the GRE follow! Keep in mind that the format is changing fairly dramatically after August 1, 2011 (you can read about it here - bigger than all the content changes is the fact that you will be able to revisit past questions, change your answers, etc.), so some of these tips won't apply. Also, this is all applicable to the general test - the subject tests are a different beast, and I was lucky enough to be in a field that's juuuust different enough from both math and physics that I could avoid taking either subject test.

If you're taking the GRE, or remotely considering taking the GRE, this might be helpful. If not, I hope it's at least somewhat entertaining.

Onwards! )

Wow, that was long. Um. Hope it helps? After some hesitation, I've decided to keep this post unlocked, so if you have friends taking the test, feel free to link them in this general direction if you think it might be helpful.

Also, no matter whether you agree or disagree with those tips, please let me know what you think in the comments! I'm fascinated by the way people learn, and it would very cool to compare notes on this.
