Hi Liuxiaoyun:

I am also preparing for GRE in Canada. GRE is a very difficult test. To many native English speaker, this test is a nightmare, too.

The first time, I failed and I know how to prepare for it a lot more than before.

For vocabularies, I bought the program from www.wordcommand.com. So far, I found it very useful. Studying the vocabularies by memorizing them will not work. It is important to use them in your conversation and writing.

I have been using test preparation tools from Kaplan and Barron. I think they are quite good.

Hope my experience helps. Where are you? China? Just curious. Good luck.

Best regards,
Remy

The GRE is not impossible. There are many non-native speakers of English who do quite well on the test. For many people, getting a high verbal score means memorizing lots of English vocabulary that they will never use.

But if you have the will and the determination, you can do it!
