John Janda's Story


Book Description

John Janda is the lead investigator at a small research firm in New York City. His memorable story was purposefully formulated to enhance vocabulary retention. With over 400 vocabulary words and definitions in context, follow John as he receives an acerbic review of his research proposal and considers whether to re-submit, to quit, or to try for an entirely new grant.You probably know how challenging it is to learn GRE Vocabulary and you may have already tried the following techniques:Vocabulary mnemonicsWord lists and word groupsYouTube videosFlash cards, Apps, GamesWhile these methods might be helpful for some, others find it hard to sift through 500+ vocabulary words. To make matter's worse, even when you think you have learned a particular word, you can never remember the actual definition- sometimes, you even forget you have ever seen the word. The truth is, mastering GRE vocabulary happens by using a variety of methods to study.My struggle with vocabulary retention led me to write this short story and having a story with regular characters helped me to recall words better. I put similar vocabulary words together and created a story that was slightly based on real events. A lot of the story is exaggerated, but the hyperbolic nature of the story helped me to achieve my verbal reasoning goal for the GRE.Creating the story took time, but the end result was great. I hope it works for you too.

If you are a foreigner and English is not your first language. Why is vocabulary so very important on the GRE test? It is so important because for most people it is more difficult to memorize vocabulary than to improve math skills. So if you can memorize the high-frequency GRE words (which others find difficult) it can help you get high GRE score. Content The words are given in bold (example, the words belabor and buttress below). The meaning is given after the equal sign (=) following a word. The words are not necessarily in alphabetical order. We have used the US spellings. The British spelling of a word, when different from the US spelling, is given in bracket after BRITISH as shown for the word belabor below. USE gives a sentence fragment carefully chosen for memory. When no sentence fragment is given, a * is shown as in the word buttress below. belabor (BRITISH = belabour) = to assail verbally, to insist repeatedly or harp on USE = belabor a point buttress = support USE = * #1 Biggest Time-Wasting, Failure-Causing Advice Given by Well Meaning Teachers, Friends, and Even Parents The mistaken advice is this: Learn 10 new words daily and you'll know 3650 words in one year. The advice simply does not work because here is the fact: while most people are capable of learning 10 new words a day, but everybody forgets within a week and many forget within 24 hours. Other versions of the same advice include these: use 10 flashcards day, use a dictionary, read English novels, etc. Important: Please note that it is not your fault because it is the nature of the human mind. 2 SPECIAL FREE GIFTS Included At the end of this book are included: (1) The complete content of the book "Franklin 1853 Most Difficult GRE Words" that was sold separately on Amazon for $2.99.
