If your GRE preparation is going well overall, and you’re doing well on practice sets, but your score isn’t increasing, then you may need to become better at handling the test itself.

The GRE has its own set of challenges, such as timing, the need to skip and return to or guess on questions, and test-day stress. So, you may need to focus on becoming better at handling those challenges to get your score to increase.

To get better at handling the test itself, you can take GRE practice tests. In fact, it may be best to take both official ETS GRE practice tests and third-party practice tests. Even though third-party GRE practice tests may be somewhat different from the real GRE, they can still help you learn how to handle the test.

Each time you take a practice test, analyze your performance. Consider not only the questions you missed or got correct but also other aspects of your performance, such as timing and how well your skipping or guessing strategies worked. Address issues that caused you to miss questions, and determine how you can improve your performance. Then, take another test and repeat the process.
