According to an article from U.S. News
and World Report, more than 700,000 people take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) for
admission to graduate or business school each year. In fact, Educational Testing Services reports
that now over 800 MBA programs worldwide accept the revised GRE as an
alternative to the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT). The GRE includes questions that incorporate verbal
reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and analytical writing.
The GRE is similar to the SAT, but there
are some significant differences that you will want to know if you plan to take
the test. First, the GRE is a
computer-adaptive test and is not done with paper and pencil. The U.S. News and World Report article explains
that, “the difficulty of the questions is based on the accuracy of your answers
to previous questions. The better you perform on the first sets of 20 verbal
and quantitative reasoning questions, the harder the next sets of 20 questions
will be.”
At
GSU’s School of Extended Learning, we offer a GRE Test
Preparation course. During the course,
you will acquire strategies in math, reading comprehension, writing, and verbal
and quantitative skills to improve GRE scores using acclaimed Cambridge test
preparation materials. Textbook,
practice tests, and all course materials are included in the fee.
By taking the workshop, you will more
fully understand the requirements, scoring, and logistics of the GRE. In addition you will recognize specific
question types on the GRE and become familiar with the skill sets that the GRE
seeks to test.
We also offer an online course in
partnership with The Princeton Review.
To enroll in the GRE LiveOnline course, you need to go to the Princeton
Review website, and during checkout, type in the promo code: GSUGRE.
