4 months to GRE and my vocabs cards are lying to me

12 Upvotes

mid January test. quant plan is boring but fine. Vocab is the weird one.

I can look at the Manhattan 500 list and recognize almost everything. Put one of those words into sentence equivalence and suddenly I am meeting it for the first time. So the deck says I know it and PowerPrep says absolutely not.

has anyone fed their own vocab notes into an ai quiz generator and gotten decent usage questions rather than "define laconic" over and over? keeping the list either way, just need something on top of it. recs appreciated

Study/Focus group

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I’m currently working on my master’s thesis, and I’ve noticed I’m much more productive when someone else is around - even if we’re each doing our own thing. When I’m alone, it’s way too easy to get distracted by my phone or just about anything else😅
So I thought I’d see if anyone would be interested in a small online study / focus group. The idea is to meet at agreed times, perhaps on Discord, and spend some time working on our own tasks together.
It doesn’t have to be studying! You could work on your thesis, tackle paperwork, do household chores, or finally get around to something you’ve been putting off. The point is simply to make it easier to get started and stay focused while having some company.

Struggling with procrastination and finding study methods that actually work? Join the UK's biggest study group 📚

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

If you're trying to optimize your revision, struggling to stick to a timetable, or just trying to figure out study methods that actually make information stick, it can be really tough doing it all on your own.

I run The Resit Room—originally built for gap year and resit A-Level students, it has grown into the biggest Discord study community in the country. It's the perfect place to build better study habits, stay accountable, and get advice from people grinding through the exact same subjects.

Here is what we focus on:

  • 🧠 Study Methods & Strategies: We have dedicated channels to share active recall techniques (blurting, spaced repetition, Anki decks) and figure out the most efficient ways to tackle heavy content.
  • 🎙️ 24/7 Study VCs: Jump into our virtual library sessions for "body doubling." If you lack discipline, turning on your camera (or just your screen share) in a muted room of other students is the ultimate way to beat procrastination.
  • ⏱️ Yeolpumta (YPT) & Accountability: Track your daily study hours, join our group Pomodoro sessions, and compete on our server leaderboards to stay motivated.
  • 📂 Resource Sharing: Swap revision notes, templates, and essay plans to save time making them from scratch.

Whether you need a new revision strategy, study templates, or just a massive group of people to keep you accountable every day, we’d love to have you.

Come say hi! 👉https://discord.gg/47nH4VWJjN

For people who has difficulty getting started in Study

1 Upvotes

Hiiii ! Are you finding it difficult to get started with your studies? I can help you with that!
Here is my guide for those who struggle to begin studying:

  1. Choose a specific time, a dedicated space, and the subject you want to study - make your study plan concrete.
  2. When the time comes, commit to studying for just 2 minutes—that’s right, only 2 minutes for that particular subject.

Here are a few tips and notes for you:

- Focus 100% while studying (this means engaging all your senses in the learning process; avoid listening to music).

- Don’t force yourself to study for longer than intended.

- Keep this up every day, and gradually increase the duration little by little.

You’ve got this! If you still find it challenging to study, feel free to send me a message—I’d be happy to be your study partner.
