Graduate Record Examination

GRE Exam Process

The GRE Exam covers three major segments –

• Analytical Writing
• Verbal Reasoning
• Quantitative Reasoning

 While Verbal and QR are scored on a range of 130-170, analytical writing is scored on a scale of 0-6.

GRE Exam Pattern

The overall GRE Exam time for the computerized test is about three hours and forty-five minutes. The GRE Exam comprises six categories with a 10-minute break following the third section.

*An unidentified un-scored section that does not count toward your score may be included and may appear in any order after the Analytical Writing section. Questions in the un-scored section are being tried out either for possible use in future tests or to ensure that scores on new editions of the test are comparable to scores from earlier editions.

**An identified research section that does not count toward your score may be included in place of the un-scored section. The research section will always appear at the end of the test. Questions in this section are included for ETS research purposes.
