For example, students will find all the words that mean “talks too much” in one semantic cluster (i.e., prolix, verbose, garrulous, logorrheic, loquacious, etc.). Rather than waste time and energy memorizing all the subtle differences between these words, students will learn to associate the words with each other and a plain-language English concept, allowing them to recognize synonym pairs on sentence equivalence and text completion questions with ease.
We do this by grouping GRE-level words into “semantic clusters.” Unlike other vocabulary builders, StellarGRE Vocabulary Flashcards leverage natural language processing technology to group sets of multiple words that share similar meanings under a simplified definition.
And since recognition is a much more efficient cognitive task than recall, this approach allows students to learn significantly more words in significantly less time than traditional methods.
StellarGRE Vocabulary Flashcards offer students an interactive, gamified learning experience to help them prepare for the verbal section of the GRE.
Rather than prompt students to recall thousands of dictionary definitions – a skill that is never tested on the exam – we train students to recognize words of similar meaning.
