How can I learn GRE vocabulary words?

[Guest]

What's up with these retarded tests? What THE F is the point to memorize so many vocabularies? There is ALWAYS something called a dictionary when we write papers. Are we more intelligent if we know more words? Does it actually test us anything? Also, does using lots of difficult vocabs in papers help the reader understand more? Sorry, my answer is no, no and no! I can't believe that these are the people taking control of our education. These trash should be genetically filtered when they are born. One day I want to drive a plane and crash wherever these F-ers are working. After that, I will be the hero of all.
Why THE F is math in GRE algebra, things we did in elementary school? We are in college, dude. Why is there no calculus on them? Are you guys just too retarded to make some calculus questions? I think researchers should do some reserach of why your brains are so small. Maybe it is better off to use you trash to do animal research, since you guys are cheaper, less rational and therefore more insane. These people should be sent to iraq to clear mines with their teeth.
In conclusion, get lost, useless college broad trash.

FYI, It's "WTF" not What THE F.

one thing that should be understood is that the GRE isn't the only deciding factor in the admissions process. there's letters of rec, statement of purpose, gpa, etc.

with that being said, graduate admissions committees still need some standardized guage to measure student ability. a 4.0 gpa at a lower-tier university is certainly not as good as a 4.0 gpa at a top-tier university. how can admissions committees know the caliber of every single university in the country, or rather, the world?

i agree the gre isn't perfect, but until someone thinks of something better, i think the gre has to stay. besides, if you're applying to a technical graduate program, admissions will focus on your quant score, and if you're applying to an english-based program, then you should have good verbal/awa scores. it's not just vocabulary; it's interpreting the context of words.
