I took this about four months ago and got an A. I bought an older, used version of one of the recommended books "Experimental Psychology" by Myers & Hansen on Amazon.com. I used the Content Outline to guide my study, then did the reading. I had a copy of Kaplan's study guide on the GRE psychology test, so also re-read the chapter on research design. A lot of the questions were scenario-based, so you should be sure you understand how experiments work in terms of the Independent Variable, Dependent Variable, subject designs, and so on. In other words, the test is about comprehending the concepts, as opposed to memorizing terms, names, etc. If you know the concepts, it's not a difficult test - or at least the version I took wasn't.
