CHANGES TO THE GRE (AFTER AUG 2011 )

  • The grading scale will range from 130 to 170, rather than from the current 200 to 800.
  • The test will be lengthened from 3 hours to 3.5 hours.
  • The order of test questions will be scrambled every 2 hours, for increased security.
  • The test will allow for test-takers to skip a question and return to it later.
  • The verbal section will no longer contain questions on analogies and antonyms.
  • A calculator will be provided so that mathematics answers will be based on test-takers’ comprehension of concepts and not their speed at basic calculations.
  • The time of the exam will increase from around 3 hours to 3 hours, 45 minutes.
  • The quantitative section will now provide an online calculator. Also its geometry component will be cut down and data analysis questions will be added.
