GRE General Test Changes under Consideration

GRE® - Graduate Record Examinations® GRE General Test Changes under Consideration

The GRE® Program is considering significant changes to the General Test to

   * increase test validity
   * enhance security measures
   * provide faculty with better information regarding applicants' performance
   * make better use of advances in technology and psychometric design.

The GRE Program plans to implement these changes in October 2006.

Changes planned include the following: Verbal Reasoning

   * Greater emphasis on higher cognitive skills and less dependence on vocabulary
   * More text-based materials, such as reading passages
   * A broader selection of reading passages
   * Emphasis on skills related to graduate work, such as complex reasoning
   * Expansion of computer-enabled tasks (e.g., highlighting a sentence in a passage that serves the function described in the question).

Quantitative Reasoning

   * Quantitative reasoning skills that are closer to skills generally used in graduate school
   * Decrease in the proportion of Geometry questions
   * Increase in the proportion of questions involving "real-life" scenarios
   * Better use of technology (e.g., on-screen calculator).

Analytical Writing

   * New, more focused prompts that reduce the possibility of reliance on memorized materials
   * The Issue and Argument tasks, each are 30 minutes in length.

As the direction of the potential changes is decided, information on the GRE Web site will be updated.
