I genuinely hated revising vocab for the GRE. Sitting with giant word lists every day felt painful and I could never stay consistent with it.

I used to play apps like Elevate sometimes and realized I remembered things way better through quick games/images than through flashcards. But none of those apps were actually useful for GRE vocab specifically.

So my friend and I started making a small game around actual GRE words for ourselves. Nothing revolutionary, it just made revision feel less miserable for me personally lol.

Leaving it here in case someone else struggles with vocab the same way I did:

Hey everyone,

A few months back I shared an app I built called Grezi for GRE vocab prep. The mods took it down because it was paid, and fair enough. So I made the whole thing free. No trial, no paywall, everything open.

The idea: you learn words through short stories instead of staring at definitions. Each word shows up in context so the meaning actually sticks. If you remember words from novels you read years ago but forget Anki cards from last week, that's the premise.

The other thing I was personally missing when I prepped was structure. So the app has study plans (1-4 months) with daily checklists. You open it, see what to do today, and work through it. 700+ words, 2,000+ practice questions with explanations, four word games, spaced repetition, and daily vocab review. You can also have a study buddy paired within the app to keep yourself accountable.

Not pretending this replaces Gregmat, TTP, or official ETS material (and honestly not even trying to). It just handles the vocab side in a way that doesn't feel like a chore.

I have been testing this with over 100 students and everyone seems to gain some value in their own way. I hope it helps you too.
Good luck to everyone grinding through prep right now.

P.S. Please be kind mods :) I have tried following every advice you guys gave last time.
