Greg is perhaps the best tutor out there in the GRE world. Also a super nice guy.

However, I personally, disagree with doing the two blanks from the old GRE.

On one hand it is true that for training is good to stretch your mental muscles but we do also adhere to the new standard. We are in 2020 not 20 years ago.

It is totally up to the student


Thanks for your reply. Totally agree about Gregmat, he really lives up to the hype.

I hear what you're saying, though given that I've done all ETS OG and Verbal Reasoning book questions, I don't really find a better alternative to the old text completion questions.

However, my real concern is about the two other Big Book question types (find pair & find opposites) as these questions aren't at all in the modern GRE.
