GRE Psych anyone?

[Johanna]

Is there anyone taking the GRE psych this Saturday? I am, but I am pretty frustrated with my lack of study time (I work taxes so the timing is not ideal, to say the least). I'd love to know if there are others signed up to take it this week and if you want to compare notes (at least before, after the exam I may not be in any mood to compare notes with anyone hilarious !
You can pm me if you don't want to clutter up the board.
Thanks, Johanna

thats just one of the GREs I am considering......

I posted a topic to see which GREs other people may have taken and thought it was easy according to their experience, background and training in their professional fields.....

I didnt get any response..

I plan on registering in August for the October GRE Psych Exam. I'd be interested in knowing what study materials were used to prepare for the exam? Also is it timed? I've heard that cracking the gre by princeton press is good.

OK for those of you planning on the GRE Psych: - it's not for wimps, let me tell you. It was one tough sucker and I have no idea how I scored. I am glad it is behind me but if I had it to do over again I would take the smaller and more focused exams. It may take longer and be more expensive, but I feel like it's going to be a long wait (6-7 weeks) before I know how many credits I earned. If I didn't score well enough I may still end up having to grind through the upper level exams anyway.

Think long and hard (and at least twice ) before signing up if you have had no formal psychology classes.

For what it's worth,

I feel your pain. My biggest problem with the exam is that it was nothing like the practice exams that ETS gives you. I only scored 590 on it. That was good for 12 credits but I already had 12. The exam was a wash for me. However, the prep that I did for it made the ECE Psych exams a lot easier.
Don't get discouraged yet. I suspect you did better than you think.
Let us know when you hear.
