Getting started with GRE prep is all about building the right base. According to the official ETS site, the GRE tests three areas: Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, and Analytical Writing. The first step is to take a free diagnostic test using ETS’s POWERPREP Online tool to see your current level.
After that, you can use the Official GRE Guide from ETS, which includes real questions and review sections. It’s one of the best books for beginners. For math basics, many students use Khan Academy, which is free and easy to understand. It covers all GRE math concepts like arithmetic, algebra, and geometry.
As your next step, follow a simple study plan for at least 2 to 3 months, with 2 hours of study daily. Practice vocabulary using tools like Quizlet, and take one mock test every 10–12 days to check progress. Avoid using too many sources, start with 2–3 that are clear and official.
