GRE

General Test

The General Test consists of three scored sections:

  • Verbal (V): 30-minute section (30 questions)
  • Quantitative (Q): 45-minute section (28 questions)
  • Analytical (A): 60-minute section (35 questions)

The verbal measure tests your ability to analyze and evaluate written material and synthesize information obtained from it, analyze relationships among component parts of sentences, and recognize relationships between words and concepts. 

The quantitative measure tests your basic mathematical skills and your understanding of elementary mathematical concepts, as well as your ability to reason quantitatively and solve problems in a quantitative setting. 

The analytical measure tests your ability to understand structured sets of relationships, deduce new information from sets of relationships, analyze and evaluate arguments, identify central issues and hypotheses, draw sound inferences, and identify plausible causal explanations.

General Test use questions from diverse areas of experience. The areas tested range from the activities of daily life to broad categories of academic interest such as the sciences, social studies, and the humanities. The content areas included in the quantitative section of the test are arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis. These are content areas usually studied in high school. Questions in the analytical section measure reasoning skills developed in virtually all fields of study. No formal training in logic or methods of analysis is needed to do well in these sections.

 

Test Preparation

GRE General Test questions are designed to measure skills and knowledge gained over a long period of time. Although preparation for a few weeks or months before the test you might increase your scores to some extent by , last-minute cramming is unlikely to help. Try the followings:

  • Become familiar with each type of question used in the test, paying special attention to the directions. If you thoroughly understand the directions for each question type before you take the test, you will have more time during the test to focus on the questions themselves.
  • Research suggests that practicing unfamiliar question types results in improved performance and decreases the likelihood of inaccurately low scores. You should still read the directions for each group of questions carefully during the actual test administration.
  • Use official GRE test preparation publications to familiarize yourself with questions used on the GRE.
