Would it be posible to slow down on the pronunciation of the words please

I knew 72 of these. My GRE is Saturday! I got 164V, 161Q, and 5AWA on PP3 yesterday. Hoping I get similar scores on the real thing!!!

Hey Philip, hope you are doing good!. I have only 8 days left for my GRE exam and i'm confused about the vocab i'm studying, will this 101 high frequency will be effective for the new gre?

Thanks so much bro for taking the time to record yourself with the definitions

I knew 83 after my first watch.

I'm going to write my GRE in 2hrs, thanks for your wishes

Great video mate. Video was very engaging and helpful.

Thank you

GRE is truly quite arduous...but your video is so didactic and your jokes in the video help us flounder less in the process!!

Thank you ❤

Please share a printable list of the words

Your videos are Didactic. Thank you!

Laconic - whereas my mom is garrulous and talks way too much, my dad is quite the opposite and very laconic 😅
Insipid - at the peruvian restaurant, my dish was so flavorful and tasty that when i tried my hubbys steamed veggie plate, it was so insipid in comparison😂
Arduous - getting my dental degree and my master's at the same time was truly arduous. What was i thinking😅.
Profligate - i dont think I'd be good at having my own business, im a profligate spender and would waste a ton of money in cute little things for the office 😂 we need someone that is frugal instead 😅
Prosaic - dont think of studying for the gre as a prosaic task! Make it insteresting and exiciting by figuring out spicy mnemonics that apply to your personal life

I don't think I'll ever forget "pusillanimous" after that remark LOL

It was and super helpful. Thanks so much

You are erudite😃

About Pussillanimous I knew beforehand what would be your trick to remember and you said the same .😊

Ingenuous means innocent/naive while ingenuity means clever/original

I also just came back from the GRE test (first time, initial points verbal 160). I prepared for it the last two days, and I listened to this video twice (also I watched gregmat´s essay organization and reading techniques). Even if these words would have not been in the test, knowing them helps to use the elimination technique and deduce other words by their root. Biggest tip I have to give to all of you who are like me don´t really study for various possible reasons, at least check out instructions HOW to read GRE sentences! They are tricky, and you need to be quick to understand if the correct word is supporting or contradicting or positive/negative. By knowing whether you are searching for a negative or a positive word everything gets so much easier. Even if your time runs out, at least guess! you might get a lucky point when otherwise the question would be left unanswered. Good luck everyone!

If you only have 1 day to study which one of his videos do yall recommend for quant?

Pusillanimous.....they are a bit of a mmmmm 😂😂😂😂

Thanks so much. I have been building my vocabulary bank and learning to write. But I am not clear how to use the words in my memory to write and speak. So I think maybe I could start with some frequently used words, both academic or colloquial, in my writing or speaking. Is it a effective way to really master words. Could you give me some suggestions?

Good technique to remember meaning of pusillanimous, xd!

Thank you sir

The word "didactic" really confuses me. Is it a good word or a bad word?

Helps a lot, thanks a ton

Just came back from GRE, I had hardly prepared for it but watched this video and another one from your channel, it gave me a 7 marks jump, form 155(the free gre official mock test) to 162 in the GRE in one day.
