Hi, I am just like you longing to increase my word power and to communicate skillfully in English. AS I read theNewspaper every morning, when I come across a good phrase or idiom, I note it down in my Notebook and use it while writing articles in different context. Five words a day make an enormous Word Power in a year. You may try this method too. James.
I beg to differ from your view of learning for the GRE. This process requires ages to master the sea of words in English,which might go on for a year or so.
In my opinion, cramming new words and repeated rote along with reading the Times of India, (where innumerable GRE test worthy words are used) is more practical task that can be completed in 4-6 months.
