Yes, to some extent. Both test quantitative reasoning and logical thinking. But GRE also includes Verbal and Analytical Writing sections. These sections are not part of dMAT exam to study in Germany.

Beginners should focus heavily on high-weight math topics like Number Systems, Averages, Percentages, and Ratios.

These core concepts appear much more frequently. Practicing on questions related to these topics will help you.

The Official Guide to the GRE General Test (4th Edition) is considered the most reliable book for overall preparation. The ETS is the publisher of this which is the conducting body of this exam. This includes real GRE questions across all sections.

Choosing the best books for GRE prep is not a tough task. You need to keep few things in mind:

  1. Choose only official ETS materials for accurate question types. 
  2. Look for books that explain GRE concepts clearly and offer plenty of practice questions with detailed explanations.
  3. If the books cover all sections: Verbal, Quant, and AWA then its good or you can buy section-wise books of reputed publishers.
  4. Read reviews to see what other students found helpful for their learning style.

Start 3 to 4 months before your university applications are due. Take a diagnostic test first to establish a baseline. Then schedule your exam at least 2 months before your earliest application deadline to allow for retakes.

Simple Breakdown:

  1. Learning: You need 3 months to learn the math and words.

  2. Safety Net: You need 1 extra month just in case your first score is bad and you need to retake it.

Bottom line: Do not wait. Register for exam now to give yourself a deadline.

The Official Guide to the GRE by ETS is the best book. It has real questions from past exams. For math, use the Manhattan Prep 5 lb. Book. It has tons of practice problems. For words, use Word Power Made Easy or Magoosh flashcards. Don't buy too many books, just finish one properly.

You should buy the Official Guide to the GRE by ETS (the exam makers). This is the most important book. For extra practice, you can buy Manhattan Prep 5 lb. Book or Kaplan GRE Prep Plus from Amazon or local book stores.
