Working hard for the GRE but not seeing the score improvement you expected? You might be making one of the most common GRE study mistakes—without realizing it.
In this video, Erika Tyler-John, a 339 GRE scorer and expert instructor with 10+ years of teaching experience and 4M+ YouTube views, breaks down 6 study habits that quietly waste time, drain energy, and hold students back from their target scores.
After years of teaching the GRE, Erika has seen these patterns repeatedly—even among highly motivated students. The video covers mistakes like inconsistent “squeeze-in” studying, skipping straight to explanations, ignoring careless errors, relying on memory instead of an error log, abandoning topics too quickly, and avoiding official practice tests.
You’ll also learn what to do instead: how to build a more effective study schedule, review mistakes strategically, improve retention, and create habits that actually translate to higher scores on test day.
If your GRE prep feels exhausting but your score isn’t moving the way you want, there’s a strong chance one of these mistakes is the reason.
Whether you’re starting from scratch with your GRE or you’ve been preparing for the GRE for a while, Target Test Prep has a personalized study plan that can help you reach your goal. Sign up for a FREE full-access trial for our 5-star-rated GRE prep course!
