Description
Recent #1 Ranked Education App - Improve your GRE vocabulary FASTER than with any other vocab app. Applying the latest in cognitive science techniques, Brainscape helps you efficiently learn over 2,000 “dynamic flashcards” covering both vocabulary words and their roots.

Brainscape makes sure that your study time is used as efficiently as possible, because – let’s face it – you are busy!
GRE Vocab Genius includes:
• Nearly 1,900 flashcards for some of the most useful yet difficult vocabulary words found on the GRE, complete with
definitions, sample sentences, and synonyms
• Over 300 “word elements” flashcards for common prefixes, suffixes,
and roots
• A customized flashcard repetition algorithm that cuts your memorization time dramatically
•
Convenient “browse” and “search” functions that allow you to easily find cards you want
• Ongoing feedback,
statistics, and visualization tools to help you track your progress
The Brainscape team is made up of former executives from The Princeton Review and Kaplan, as well as cognitive scientists formerly with Columbia and Yale. Our mission is to make learning easier and more convenient.
