What is the GRE and What does it Test

The GRE (Graduate Record Examination) General Exam is a required test for most American graduate schools (except business schools, which require the GMAT, and law schools, which require the LSAT. The GRE consists of three multiple-choice sections, Quantitative, Analytical and Verbal, and an essay section called the Writing Assessment, which is taken separately.

As of August 1st, 2011, the new GRE has been implemented and is now mandatory.

Test Format Changes:
Analytical Writing

The Analytical Writing has been modified but not overhauled. You will still write two essays (now called writing tasks), but you no longer will be presented with two options on the first writing task, called the “Issue” question; you will answer the one prompt given. The “Issue” question is now 30 minutes long rather than 45 minutes. Its name has been changed from “Present Your Perspective on an Issue” to “Analyze an Issue.” Finally, the scoring of both writing tasks will be accomplished by one human and one computer grader in 2012. The second writing task, called “Analyze an Argument” is unchanged. Likewise, scoring still ranges from 0 to 6 in half-point increments.

The Verbal Reasoning (formerly Verbal Ability) section has been changed dramatically; however, the underlying items it tests – reading comprehension and vocabulary – are still the focus of this part of the GRE. The old GRE usually presented two long Reading Comprehension passages with several questions for each passage, but now there are more Reading Comprehension passages, and they are of varied lengths. The rote-memorization Antonym questions and Analogy questions have been deleted entirely, and Sentence Completion questions have been expanded to include four different types of fill-in-the-blank questions, summarized in the chart below.

A new feature of the fill-in-the-blank questions is the novel use of either ovals or boxes to precede answer choices. If you are to choose one answer only from the answer choices given, each of the choices will be preceded by an oval. On the other hand, if a question requires that you choose multiple answers from the choices given, then each answer choice will be preceded by a box shape. These geometric choice indicators will become very helpful to test takers, reminding them that not every answer is a traditional “choose one” selection. 

A unique feature of some the Reading Comprehension questions is the “highlight a sentence” question, in which you will be directed to answer a question by choosing a particular sentence in the passage. You will use your computer mouse to highlight the sentence and then you will verify that the highlighted sentence is your answer to the question.

The Verbal Reasoning questions comprise two of the five scored sections of the revised GRE. Each verbal section is 30 minutes long, with about 20 questions per section. Formerly, there was only one 30-minute, 30-question section.
