• COURSE TOPICS

  CSUSM’s GRE preparation program will help you prepare for the entirety of the GRE test and will cover concepts, strategies and tips for the quantitative, verbal and analytical writing sections of the test. Discover tools to help you quickly break down complex math and verbal problems into problems that are singular and easier to solve.

  The class includes all materials, weekly office hours with the instructor to get help and weekly personalized adjustments to your study plan to help keep you accountable and productive when you’re not in class. We’ll support you through the GRE prep process as much as we can!

  Though the class is online, it will be an interactive class. Breakout rooms, digital whiteboard function, chat and response tools will be used to increase class discussion. It will be expected that you are willing to ask questions, discuss practice problems and attempt to follow a study plan outside of the class to the best of your ability. 

  Takeaways: In general, what will you learn how to do? 

  • Deal with tricky critical reasoning
  • Employ a template and plan or writing great essay responses
