Why should one write the GRE Test?

Highly versatile

GRE is probably the most versatile test ever as most courses and most colleges around the world demand the best GRE score. Instead of having to write separate exams for every program that you’re applying to, you are all set with just GRE.

The entire test is computer-based

ETS partnered with various high-quality testing facilities around the world. The computer-based GRE test is both time-saving and also makes it easy for the students to book their tests.

Freedom to choose between scores

Another advantage of taking up the GRE is the freedom to choose which of your scores you’d like to send to the college that you’re applying to. Let’s say this is your second attempt, but your scores are lower than the first. You can go ahead and send the scores of your first attempt again, where your scores were higher.

Retake your exams as you please

Most qualifier exams are one-off and if you score-less, you’d have to wait an entire year again for the next attempt. But GRE is an exception. You can retake your GRE 5 times a year by leaving 21 days between the tests.

Immediate results

Apart from all its benefits, the most under-celebrated one is that you can receive your scores almost instantly. Apart from the analytical writing, your scores for the quantitative and verbal portions get displayed the moment you click on submit.

Free score delivery

At the very end of your GRE, you can enter the colleges to which you’d like to send your scores for free. You can also do it later but might have to pay for it.

The GRE Test Format

Any given GRE examination would have three-categories inside of it having their skills to analyze. They are:

Quantitative Reasoning,
Verbal Reasoning, and
Analytical Writing Assessment

GRE Sections	Paper – Based		Computer – Based
GRE Sections	Duration	No. of Sections	Duration	No. of Sections
Analytical Writing	60 minutes	2 sections, 2 tasks	60 minutes	1 section, 2 tasks
Verbal Reasoning	70 minutes	2 sections, 50 questions	60 minutes	2 sections, 40 minutes
Quantitative Reasoning	80 minutes	2 sections, 50 questions	70 minutes	2 sections, 40 minutes

Quantitative Reasoning

You’ll have to understand and interpret the questions within the given time frame for which you’ll need pristine math knowledge.

But on the flip side, the topics that you’ll need to master are nothing but basics. Mastering simple concepts like Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, Statistics, and Data Interpretation you can have a boost to your score.

Analytical Writing

Here, you’ll have to provide specific responses by reading and understanding the questions thoroughly. You’ll also have to back up your answers with suitable reasons and examples.

The more evidence you use, the more relevant your answer becomes, which in turn gets you more marks. Above all, your standard of English and grammar are the two most important things when it comes to Analytical writing.

Verbal Reasoning

Unlike analytical writing, you won’t have to explain your answers in detail. Your score solely depends on your ability to conclude by quickly skimming through the questions and making sense out of them.

You might also have to segregate the most relevant points and from the least relevant ones. You’ll have to memorize the meanings of several complex words and concepts to get a good verbal score.
