How do I study GRE vocab effectively?

Use physical flashcards with spaced repetition. Set a daily goal, learn words in batches, and review previous batches before adding new ones. The key is consistent daily exposure over weeks, not cramming hundreds of words the night before. Context helps too: when you learn a word, use it in a sentence so it sticks.
