[Verbal 후기 게시판] VERBAL시험에서 가장 많이 나오는 단어

글쓴이 : 최고…

CBT버벌시험은 셋에 따라 문제도 바뀌지만, 아래 단어들은 셋에 상관없이 2007,8,9년에 가장 많이 나온 어휘들을

제가 직접 정리한 것입니다. 참고로 단어 밑에 밑줄이 있는 것은 그동안 시험에 나온 적이 많이 있습니다.

그러나 밑줄이 없는 것도 시험에 나올 수 있으므로 아래 내용은 모두 외우고 시험을 보셔야 합니다.

참고로 아래 COGENT는 7월에 가장 많이 후기에 나온단어인데, 8월에도 나오고 있습니다.

아 그리고 다른 게시판에 제가 만든 자료는 게시하지 마십시요. 그건 불법입니다.
