GRE® word list question

[Wvup2010]

I have gone through several GRE word lists, and I realize I already knew over 80% of the words listed with no prompting. How does that rate among others who have reviewed the word lists? Is this good?

I am considering taking the GRE in May 2010 and I don't want to spend time overstudying things I'm already ok in overall with the REAL population.

Thanks.

Hi Wvup2010

guess knowing 80% of the wordlist is great considering you know 80% of the tough words tested on the GRE. Can i know which wordlists are you referring to?

for me, I was referring to the PR (1500 words) and i was happy with them until i came across barrons and edusoftech's Flashcards which gave me jitters. there were 4000+ words in each and i realised i knew only 50%.
