Yes, they’re both good sources to rely on for anybody who wants to improve their vocabulary!
However, a good vocabulary alone is NOT enough for a 160+ score. I’m sure you’re aware that the GRE Verbal Reasoning section is the harder section, especially for non-native English speakers.
The GRE Verbal section is NOT directly testing your vocabulary. It’s testing your ability to comprehend and analyze information presented in English
So if you’re looking for a 160+, I recommend you do two more things:
Take a GRE Sample Test - this will give you an accurate score prediction + personalized feedback on where you need to improve
Download a GRE Prep App - for practice questions with explanations.
3 months is enough time provided you’re smart and dedicated to your preparation.
