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..
I joined jamboree last year for GRE coaching and admission counseling. The mentor I was assigned was Ms. Shagun Kansal and my writer was Ms. Neha Ahuja. Both of them helped me a lot. I had no knowledge about the admission's stuff and requirements and I don't think without shagun ma'am I could have gotten admission into masters. They were always available for me. So, I just want to say thank you to both.

My personal advice is to ask for Shivani ma'am and Kamal ma'am as counselor and writer respectively. They helped me thoroughly and and were always there to clear my doubts
