GRE Directions: Each passage in this group is followed by questions based

on its content. After reading a passage, choose the best answer to each question. Answer all questions following a passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage.

 

“Cracking the GRE” Directions: This is not really a test of reading, nor is it a test of

comprehension. It’s a treasure hunt! The answers are in the passage. You just have to find them.

General Strategy

For every section, you should plan to use scratch paper.

For each problem, jot down the following. You

don’t need to copy down the answers, which will be on the computer screen.

A B C D E

When you eliminate an answer, you can draw a line through the option on your scratch paper.

Page 18: Prepare Smart for the GRE

General Strategy

Be sure to go through the entire list of answers.

Do not stop when you think you have found the answer.

Any answer that strikes you as “obvious” is likely not the correct answer. These are called “eye-catcher” answers.

Page 19: Prepare Smart for the GRE

Strategies for Antonym Section You are given a word; you must identify the

word that is the opposite.

Draw a line through any word that is clearly not similar in meaning to the word that you generated.

Draw a line through any word that does not have an opposite (e.g., chair, cloth).

If you cannot find one best answer, guess among the remaining answers.
