Planning to apply to grad school? Then be prepared to take the GRE. What is the GRE? It stands for Graduate Record Examination, which is a standardized test used by university and college admissions committees. Scores are examined in order to compare potential students to each other using the same scale. There is a GRE General Test, which measures the skills you've learned and developed during your high school and college careers. The areas that are measured include quantitative skills, verbal skills, and analytical writing skills. There are also various GRE Subject Tests, which concentrate on your skills in a specific area of study.
The GRE acts as an aptitude test. Its purpose is to measure your probability of succeeding while in graduate school. Many students with not so impressive college GPAs have been able to use this test as leverage for getting into grad schools of their choices. So, how do you ensure that your score is high enough to capture the attention of admissions commissions? Tutoring has been known to help students acquire the skills they need to excel at this standardized test.
