Berkeley GRE Tutoring FAQ
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is used as a part of the graduate admissions process by many colleges and universities. The GRE takes approximately three and a half hours to complete and is made up of four sections, including the analytical writing, experimental or research, quantitative, and verbal reasoning.
The analytical writing section is separated into an issue task and an argument task. The issue task requires you to write about a topic for half an hour. The argument task involves critiquing an argument. The experimental or research section can be either verbal or quantitative and does not count towards your total score.
The quantitative section is also broken down into two sections. The first section focuses on reasoning and high school level math. The second section consists of data interpretation, problem solving, and quantitative comparisons. Verbal reasoning is also divided into two sections. The first section covers vocabulary usage, critical reasoning, and reading comprehension. The second section includes critical reading, sentence equivalence, and text completion.
If you want to strive to ensure that you perform well on your exam and can get into the graduate school of your choice, you should consider contacting a private tutor. Varsity Tutors will connect you with an experienced and trusted GRE tutor in Berkeley, CA, who could be a great match for you.
