GRE flashcards

The GRE runs just under two hours since its 2023 redesign, across Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, and Analytical Writing. The Verbal section is famous for its vocabulary, and the Quant section rewards having formulas, number properties, and concepts at your fingertips. Both are fundamentally recall problems — knowing the word or the rule instantly, so your time goes to reasoning rather than retrieval — which is exactly what spaced-repetition flashcards solve. With a shorter test, every question carries more weight, so automatic recall matters even more.

Cram turns GRE word lists or your quant notes into flashcards automatically, then schedules them with spaced repetition so high-frequency words and formulas are locked in by test day. Instead of re-reading a vocabulary list you half-recognize, you practice producing each definition from memory — the version of knowing the exam actually tests. An exam countdown shows the days left to your date, and every deck works offline with no ads or lockouts.
