Taking too many GRE practice tests might be hurting your score. It’s one of the most common prep mistakes—and it often goes unnoticed.
In this video, Erika Tyler-John, a 339 GRE scorer and expert instructor with 10+ years of teaching experience and 4M+ YouTube views, answers a key question: How many practice tests should you actually take?
The short answer: for most students, around 5 tests is enough—and more isn’t better.
Erika explains why excessive testing is often a sign of ineffective prep. The real improvement comes from reviewing your tests and targeting weaknesses—not from taking test after test. She also breaks down why unofficial practice tests can be unreliable, often leading to inaccurate scores and poor expectations for test day.
You’ll learn how to use official practice tests strategically, how to get the most value from them, and what to do if you run out. This includes when it makes sense to retake tests and how to avoid artificially inflating your score.
If you want to make every practice test count—and avoid a mistake that quietly holds back your GRE score—this video will show you how.
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!
