The last time I took the GRE, it was for a grad program that said they'd only look at the language scores & the subject test in English. So I answered randomly on the quantitative test: C, C, C, C, C. I was done in ten minutes.
I did slightly better on that quantitative test than I had done years before, after studying. (But both scores were appallingly bad.) I'm deeply math-paralyzed, though, so I'm not a good example of whether studying is worth it.
I think you can get the hang of their bizarro reading-test logic. I got better at it through practice. "The main point of this is..." --always something that seems wrong, but I got used to figuring out which one they thought was right.
You'll score better than I did, and I got into grad schools.

What are you going to study?
