ETS materials and basically nothing else. Magoosh Or Anki flashcards for the vocab are also good. Study for a 1-2 months and you will do great

The magoosh flashcard app is really helpful

Target Test prep is prep highly rated. Just started and it's going well. I'd take a look.

Manhattan Prep and Magoosh were the most helpful for me. I studied 4 months and took it twice to get the score I wanted (328+)

I mainly used Manhattan 10 lb book of problems to improve my quant score.. and I’m someone who tends to struggle with quant on testing (hence why I took the GRE). I’d recommend!
