Having a wide vocabulary is a big part of passing the examination. You won’t just need it for the language section. You’ll use it for word problems, you’ll use it for the verbal reasoning questions. That’s why it’s so important to build your vocabulary.

How can you do that? Here are my tips.

Now, some of you asked me for a list of books that I can recommend. Here are a few books and book series that can get you started. I have copies of most of these in my personal library.

  1. To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
  2. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
  3. The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis
  4. Stardust by Neil Gaiman
