Difference between current and revised GRE
There are new types of questions on the GRE revised General Test that better reflect the kind of thinking you'll do in graduate or business school programs.
Verbal Reasoning section
Antonyms and Analogies have been removed from the test, so you're no longer tested on vocabulary out of context. New types of questions have also been added to test your ability to interpret, evaluate and reason from what you've read.
Quantitative Reasoning section
More focus has been placed on data interpretation and real-life scenarios, with multiple-choice and numeric entry answers. You'll also be able to use an on-screen calculator to reduce the emphasis on computation.
Analytical Writing section
You'll be given one topic to complete an essay task about, rather than a choice of topics. Tasks are more specific, to ensure you can integrate critical thinking and analytical writing by fully addressing the tasks presented.

mslI have GRE Test in 2 weeks time. What is the best way to memorize as many words as I can,
-
Neema AmbhurkarThe best way to memorize the words is constant revision. At the end of the day make sure that you remember the words that you went through throughout the day.
Give minimum one hour for one word list provided in the Barrons.
Within two weeks time, it is difficult to memorize all the words, but be sure that whatever you read you remember it.
Read little, but read well and thoroughly. -
