GRE Preparation – About GRE

GRE – Graduate Record Examination, is a standardized test conducted by ETS (Educational Testing Services). The GRE scores are accepted by most of the top graduate level schools worldwide for admission to the Master’s degree programme.  It basically comprises two test formats – GRE General and GRE Subject test. While a GRE general test covers topics like verbal reasoning, analytical writing, and quantitative reasoning, the GRE subject test involves topics specific to the subject in which you want to pursue post-graduation. The students involved in GRE preparation will have to give equal importance to both the tests. Though the subject test has to be given after qualifying the general test, the preparation for both has to be started beforehand.

GRE Preparation – GRE Subject Test

GRE Subject Test is an achievement test that measures the knowledge of the students in a particular field of study. The students should have an undergraduate major in one of the six disciplines namely, Biology, Chemistry, Literature, Mathematics, Physics, and Psychology. This test score is used by colleges or fellowship panels to supplement undergraduate records, recommendation letters, and other qualifications. The test is a paper-delivered format which can be taken worldwide 3 times a year in the month of September, October, and April.

GRE Preparation – Exam Registration

Firstly, the applicants need to create an ETS account to further register for the GRE General Test. The names of the candidates and their spellings must match exactly with the names printed on their identification documents which they shall present on the day of the GRE test. The students need to review the acceptable forms of ID on the ETS website.
