Well, I have 3 days and about 8 1/2 hours left before I write. I just finished writing one of the practice tests I have, and my scores have improved a bit since the last test I wrote!!!!
I started looking at the essay questions and strategies as I hadn't really looked at them yet (I've been focussing on the mathematical questions for the last week). I got a program from the GRE website which I hope will help me out with that a bit.
So for the last few days, I have to: (i) improve my mathematical mark by a bit (ii)work on writing an essay question as best as I can (iii)improve vocabulary as much as possible (luckily I like reading, so my vocabulary isn't as bad as I feared for this test!)

Yeah I read about it, more common there, and it isn't required for everything, some programs like it though. I wouldnt want to take it...I don't know algebra or any of that nonsense
