Long Beach GRE Tutoring FAQ
If you have plans to attend graduate school, you will likely need to take the GRE, also known as the Graduate Record Examination. It is the most commonly required admissions exam for graduate schools. Similar to the SAT and ACT, the GRE assesses your quantitative reasoning, verbal reasoning, analytical writing, and critical thinking. The purpose of the exam is to assist graduate schools with determining if you possess the necessary skills to try to succeed in their program. Oftentimes, GRE tutoring could help you properly prepare for this important exam.
The educational directors at Varsity Tutors can connect you with brilliant GRE tutors in and around Long Beach, CA. Your tutor will create an individualized study plan for you to make sure you are thoroughly prepared when you sit for the exam. The GRE is not the only criteria that graduate schools will use to evaluate your application; however, it is one of the most critical. This is especially true if your college GPA is not as high as you would like it to be. Achieving exceptional scores on the GRE can open up new grad school opportunities for you.
The GRE general test consists of sections that assess your analytical writing, quantitative, and verbal skills. The analytical writing portion tests how well you are able to clearly articulate complex ideas. The quantitative section tests you on your basic math, data interpretation, and problem solving skills. The verbal section tests how well you are able to analyze and understand written information via reading comprehension and sentence completion questions. To make a good use of your time, your study sessions will focus on the sections of the exam that confuse you the most. An expert GRE tutor in Long Beach, CA, will focus on your specific needs to create study sessions that are most effective to pursue your goals.
