GRE 2024 - Graduate Record Examination : Application Form, Exam Date, Eligibility, Syllabus and Exam Pattern

GRE Test 2024 - The Graduate Record Examination is a standardized test that measures verbal, mathematical, and analytical skills. It is taken to help the graduate schools except business schools to assess the potential of prospective applicants from all over the world for advanced study in nearly 2300 universities in the US.

However, the GRE Test is only one of several parameters that graduate schools look at to determine the selection of an applicant. A high score alone does not guarantee an admission offer from a great school. But the test can be looked upon as the first major hurdle to be cleared in the process of getting admission into a Graduate school of one’s choice.
