I didn't study at all and got into stanford.

I don't know which course is better...personally I benefit more from reading books and working on my own rather than listening to some instructor blather on and on.

I did use review materials for the Subject test (Biochem/Mol.Biology)...I can't for the life of me remember which books I used. But I did get 98th percentile on that

Good luck...what field are you looking at?

I just took the GRE in December

The best thing to do is pick up the Princeton Review Book that comes with a CD of Practice tests. Also, when you register for the GRE, they'll send you a practice CD.

Read the book and take the practice tests, you'll do fine
