Graduate
Record Exam (GRE)
The
GRE® General Test measures critical thinking, analytical writing, verbal
reasoning, and quantitative reasoning skills that have been acquired over a
long period of time and that are not related to any specific field of
study. The GRE® Subject Tests gauge undergraduate achievement in eight
specific fields of study. Most institutions require just the General Test.
You may need to check with the Graduate Admission's Office to determine if
your institution or program requires the GRE Subject Test.
The
GRE is used for admission to most all programs except for the Master's in
Business Administration (MBA) (see GMAT below). The GRE test is
