Hey,

I used the Kaplan premiere live online book (alone). I found the verbal questions to be very similar to the actual exam. After three weeks of intense studying I got a 39V on the exam. I was always much stronger in the verbal section than the quantitative section but I found that the Kaplan CATs prepared me very well. I hope this helps!

Thank you for the kind words Reaching Higher... I just got my AWA score and I got a 6! That's surprising haha... I did have fun with those essays though.

Hey Money,

You are most welcome. I just realized I spelled "eloquence" incorrectly. Sorry about that!

I also got a 6 on the AWA essays. It just shows you that you can express your thoughts with ease. That should give you the total motivation to move forward.

Looking forward to hearing about your awesome score.

Angie
