The GRE offers two different tests: the GRE General Test and the GRE Subject Test.

The General Test is not specific to any one field of study and includes the following three sections:

Analytical writing section: assesses critical thinking and writing skills.

Verbal section: tests candidates' ability to analyze and evaluate written material and interpret information from it. Candidates also much analyze relationships among component parts of sentences, recognize relationships between words and concepts and reason with words in solving problems.

Quantitative section: a combination of arithmetic, algebra, geometry and data analysis.

Find out from the admissions office of the colleges you are applying to if a Subject Test is required by the department you want to join. It is offered in eight specific fields including: Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Computer Science, Physics, Literature in English, Mathematics, and Psychology. Each Subject Test is intended for students who have majored in or have extensive background in that specific area.

It is essential to properly prepare for the GRE.

Inadequate preparation results in poor testing decisions, rushing, missing easy questions, nervousness, and, worst of all, poor GRE test scores. In order to get into the graduate program of your choice, you MUST do well on your GRE. Schools do not look just at undergraduate GPA.

Time management is probably the MOST important aspect of the test that can be learned. The reason is because if you had no time limit, you could answer most, if not all, of the test questions correctly. This makes it essential to place the majority of your preparation on practicing time management. It is also important that you study, take practice tests, and take a prep course. These three elements will increase your time management ability.

Practice tests are the key to performing well on the GRE. Using past GRE exams allows you to become more familiar with the test's format, the type of questions, and difficulty levels. There are many practice tests available in books and online resources. The book section below lists a few suggested resources. Ask your friends or test prep instructors for suggestions as well.

But just using the past tests is not enough. Test prep experts agree that practicing UNDER TIMED CONDITIONS best prepares you for the pressures of test day.

Taking practice tests under real time pressure is essential in improving pacing. This real time pressure can be simulated by taking old tests along with THE SILENT TIMER™. This process can greatly improve your time management which results in a higher score. Even though you cannot bring the timer into your test, THE SILENT TIMER™ is still the number one practice tool.

If you are taking a preparation course from The Princeton Review, Kaplan, Gorilla Test Prep, or another great test prep company, you already know how important having a timer is to doing well on your test.
