Thousand of students take GRE exam everyday. To help students prepare for GRE Tests, there are lots of resources available online. If you want to know which online information about GRE is worth reading, then its always good to ask someone who have already appeared for GRE exam. I have collected very good and exhaustive GRE materials
My my personal experience, starting with Barron’s Wordlist will get you going. For exam strategies, refer to Kaplan. Some students find it hard to decide which book to use, Barrons or Kaplan for exam preparation
I have written in depth about GRE Tests and steps to improve GRE exam score and also, way to estimate how much you can score in GRE 1 week before actual exam day and how GRE Exam is scored. I try constantly to find useful information about GRE, TOEFL, Universities, GRE Scores required for admission.
I get email from so many students to select universities based on their GRE Score, TOEFL Score, Academic percentage and projects. I personally know how hard for students to select universities. There are so many universities, colleges, in U.S. and finding 5 to 10 graduate school to apply is not easy task. You can refer to 12 Step U.S. Universities Selection based on your profile, that will make job much easier for you.
Save $80 during GRE Exam
Preparing for GRE is one part, but if you were to know which universities to apply during the day of actual test then you can forward the scores to schools those schools at end of exam. You can forward GRE Scores upto 4 universities. If you have the universities selected, then forwarding GRE score will save you money.
If you are not prepared with list of universities to apply, then for each university gre scores forwarded will cost $20. So, its important to know about universities before you appear for GRE Test.

Hey Sai,
It is important that you send your scores now. By saying now, I mean you need to send your score by max December 09 for you to get admission for fall ’10. So if you have not taken up your GRE yet, then prepare really well for the next 5 months and take up GRE in the month of October. Many universities have a deadline of December 15. Make your decisions wisely.
Cheers!

@diana: Scoring 1000 in GRE is not big deal if you have scored 104 in SAT. You will still have math skills and verbal. But, you will need to spend atleast 2-3 months studying for GRE. YOu can look in GRE Section to find more details.
