I am planning on taking the GRE's to get into a graduate program for Psychology, but I know that I am lacking strength in vocabulary. Other than reading (which I'm doing) as a means to increase vocabulary, what other cool - interesting - or non-traditional methods can you all think of that may help with building vocabulary at the professional/graduate level?

New York Times crossword puzzles. Look for compiled books in softcover edited by Will Shortz.
