The GRE® General Test is Changing. Find Out What You
Need to Know - and Why It's Good News for You.
For millions of students like you, a graduate or business degree
can give you a big advantage in your future career. An important
step toward achieving that goal - and the path to thousands of
graduate and business programs all over the world - is to take the
GRE® General Test.
Now we're making that step even better for you. Starting this
August, the GRE® revised General Test will replace
the current GRE General Test, giving you the advantage of a better
test experience - and new types of questions that help show your
readiness for graduate-level work.
- A new test-taker friendly design for the
computer-based test that lets you edit or change your answers, skip
questions and more, all within a section - giving you the freedom
to use more of your own test-taking strategies. Another new
feature: an on-screen calculator.
- New types of questions in the Verbal Reasoning
and Quantitative Reasoning sections, many featuring real-life
scenarios that reflect the kind of thinking you'll do in today's
demanding graduate and business school programs.
- Special savings of 50% when you take the GRE revised
General Test between August 1 and September 30, 2011. The
50% discount means big savings for you - and another big advantage
to taking the GRE revised General Test.
- Important score reporting information you need to
know: If you take the GRE revised General Test during our
special discount period of August - September 2011, your scores
will be sent by mid-November. However, if you need your scores
before November, take the current test before
August.
Something else to keep in mind when you receive your scores: The
GRE revised General Test features a new score scale that can make
it easier for schools to compare your GRE scores with the scores of
other candidates. Learn more about the new score scale.
