GRE数学增加了难度，不过，小编相信，我们中国的考生还是hold住的~~在这种情况下，了解数学词汇，端正数学基本概念和熟悉相应实例非常重要。来看下面这个系列吧。

一元二次方程

ax²+bx+c=o

x₁₂=[-b±(b²-4ac^1/2)]/2a

描述统计 Descriptive statistics

mode 众数

一组数中出现频率最高的

极差 range

一组数中最大值与最小值之间的差值

平均数 mean

算术平均 arithmetic mean

几何平均 geometric mean

例题.The circumference of a rectangle is 20

A.The greatest area of the rectangle

B.25

中位数 median

中位数的寻找方法：

1.将所有n个数字按着从大到小或者从小到大排列；

2.如果n=奇，整个序列中位于中间位置的数就是中位数；如果n=偶，中间两个数的算术平均即是中位数。

例题.If the arithmetic mean of a, b, c, 3 and 5 is 6, which of the following must be true?

1.The median of the five numbers cannot be 3

2.At least one of a, b and c is greater than 7

3.The range of the five numbers is 2 or more

A.1 only

B.2 only

C.3 only

D.1 and 3

E.2 and 3
