GRE WORD LIST | 100 WORDS TO ACE THE GRE VOCABULARY IN 2026
How important is vocabulary to the GRE? Can you get a 320 + GRE to score on the GRE if your vocabulary is not vast? There are lots of myths about the relationship between a student’s vocabulary and their GRE score.
The GRE is scored on a scale of 260 to 340 and one can score a maximum of 80 points. Of these, 40 points are for Quantitative Reasoning, for which you do not need vocabulary skills. Further, of the 40 points in Verbal Reasoning 20 points are assigned to Reading Comprehension questions which focus more on reading and argument analysis. The remaining 20 points of the Verbal Reasoning section come from Text Completion and Sentence Equivalence questions. Approximately half of these questions are focused on advanced vocabulary.
As you can see above, if you concentrate on your Math section, as well as your reading and reasoning skills, you can get 70 of the available 80 points quite comfortably, and thereby, get 330 out of 340 even with an average vocabulary. Students, however, make the mistake of devoting more than 50% of their GRE prep time to learning new words. If you think you need to enhance your vocabulary, then you need to do it in a less time-consuming manner.
The Jamboree Vocabulary Method is the most efficient way to learn and revise the high-frequency GRE words. We have collated approximately 1800 words that appear most frequently in the GRE. These 1800 words are split into 14 Word Lists. The words in each list are divided into groups with similar meanings. There are about 325 such groups. So, instead of learning individual meanings of the 1800 words, you will learn only 325 meanings..
GMAT Score : 730, Credit goes to Jamboree (Noida). It turned out to be the perfect place for me to start my preparation. The sincerity and dedication of their amazing faculty completely won me over. The personal attention, critical feedback after every test & flexible access to faculty for doubt clearing sessions is exactly what I needed and what I found here at Jamboree. They even provided guidance and assistance in developing a customized preparation plan for me, specific to my academic level which was crucial to me. Apart from faculty, the administrative team too , was more than supporting , all along the process. I am grateful to Jamboree for my 730 and for the future I am going to make with it. My sincerest recommendation to all GMAT aspirants out there, is to go with Jamboree. I am sure it will be a great experience for you too !!

This is Niranjan Paruchuru. My experience with Jamboree is very positive. I have started taking GMAT coaching from them in November 2019 and the pandemic couldn't stop them from teaching me through online mode. Inderpal Sir and Akshay sir were my verbal and Quant faculties respectively, and they have assisted me even during the pandemic. The webinars organised by Amit sir, the material provided, the full length tests really boosted my skills.
If their GMAT training is one reason why I am admitted in ESCP Business School for Master in Management, their admissions team in the other main reason.
I've availed their admission services and I never regret that decision. My admission councelor, Aparna Srivastava ma'am is very good at what she does. She constantly pushed me for good in every aspect and the mock interview sessions with her really a savior which helped me get into various top B-schools like ESCP, UCD, Em-Lyon. Lastly, my writer Isha Sharma ma'am was equally supportive and she added lot of value to my application through her writings.
I would truly recommend you to go for them but wait only if you really have the determination to crack the test and have your goals clear. Cheers..!

I had a very good experience with my GMAT prep and MBA counselling. Ms. Jayabanu would personally call me to indicate me any change in class schedule, I respect her commitment. Both English and Mathematics faculties helped me during my GMAT journey. As of college counselling is concern, I extracted the maximum possible help from the assigned counselor and writer, they helped me with a smile as always. Based on my experience I would definitely recommend this institute to others who are looking for GMAT prep and college counselling related help.
