I have been a crap commenter this week. This doesn't mean I'm not reading my flist (believe me, I am), but rather that for no apparent reason, I'm just down on communication this week.
But anyway, here's a blanket sympathy/congratulations/good luck post, because I've seen needs for all of those at some point this week.

So, who has math GRE tips for me? My test date is Sept. 6th. Fun, fun. I'm looking at the practice test for the math portion, and OH MY GOD. I haven't had a math class in more than four years. I tried to put everything math-related out of my mind after high school. I CAN'T REMEMBER ANYTHING. They have little review bits at the top, yeah, but ow. And my TI-83 has been dead for a couple years now. Do I even need a graphing calculator?
Not that the School of Information Science really cares about an applicant's math score, but I'd like it not to drag my total score down to unreasonable levels, y'know?

Date: 2006-08-30 09:51 pm (UTC)I registered online through gre.org. I think you have to register two business days in advance; I made my reservation a couple weeks ago, and my test is next week. When you pick your test center location, it should give you a calendar with available test dates and times; I just sort of chose one at random, because there were morning and afternoon slots basically every day of the week. You just click on the date/time you want, and it should ask you for your credit card, etc., and send a confirmation e-mail.
