What Is the GRE Examination?

The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a standardised test developed and administered by Educational Testing Service (ETS). It is widely used by graduate schools, business schools and other postgraduate institutions as part of their admission requirements.

The GRE General Test is designed to assess important academic skills that are relevant to success in graduate-level education.

These include analytical writing, verbal reasoning and quantitative reasoning.

Many universities and graduate programmes consider GRE scores alongside other admission requirements, such as academic transcripts, recommendation letters, statements of purpose and relevant professional experience.

For candidates seeking international postgraduate admission, understanding the GRE and preparing adequately can be an important part of the application process.

Why Do You Need to Take the GRE?

The GRE can play an important role in your international academic journey. Depending on the institution and programme, your GRE score may be required or accepted as part of your admission application.

Here are some reasons candidates take the GRE:

1. Admission into International Graduate Schools

Many universities around the world accept GRE scores for admission into master’s and doctoral programmes. If your preferred institution requires the GRE, taking the examination is an important step towards completing your application.

2. Pursuing a Master’s Degree Abroad

Are you planning to pursue an MSc, MA, MEng or another postgraduate qualification? Some graduate programmes require or recommend GRE scores as part of their selection process.

3. PhD and Doctoral Programme Applications

Candidates applying for doctoral and research-based programmes may encounter GRE requirements depending on their chosen university, department and area of study.

4. Demonstrating Academic Readiness

The GRE assesses reasoning, analytical writing and quantitative skills. These are important abilities for handling demanding postgraduate academic work.

5. Expanding Your International Study Opportunities

A GRE score may help you meet the admission requirements of institutions that consider the examination. It can therefore form part of your strategy for exploring postgraduate opportunities across different countries.

Important: GRE requirements vary by university, department and programme. Always confirm whether your preferred institution requires, recommends or does not require GRE scores before registering.

Understanding the Three Sections of the GRE General Test

Before registering for the examination, it is important to understand its structure and the skills assessed.

The GRE General Test evaluates candidates in three major areas.

1. Analytical Writing

The Analytical Writing section evaluates your ability to communicate complex ideas effectively, construct logical arguments and support your opinions with relevant reasoning.

Candidates are expected to demonstrate their ability to:

• Develop and communicate clear arguments.
• Examine complex issues critically.
• Present ideas in a logical and organised manner.
• Support arguments with relevant examples and explanations.
• Demonstrate effective written English.

Strong analytical writing skills are particularly valuable for postgraduate students who will be expected to write academic papers, research proposals and dissertations.

2. Verbal Reasoning

The Verbal Reasoning section measures your ability to understand written information, analyse relationships between words and concepts, and interpret complex passages.

It assesses skills such as:

• Reading comprehension.
• Understanding vocabulary in context.
• Analysing written arguments.
• Identifying relationships between words and ideas.
• Evaluating conclusions and assumptions.

Candidates should develop strong reading habits and become comfortable analysing academic and complex written materials.

3. Quantitative Reasoning

The Quantitative Reasoning section assesses mathematical reasoning and problem-solving abilities.

It covers areas such as:

• Arithmetic.
• Algebra.
• Geometry.
• Data analysis.
• Quantitative comparison.
• Mathematical problem-solving.

You do not necessarily need an advanced mathematical background to perform well. However, understanding fundamental mathematical concepts, interpreting numerical information and practising different question formats are essential.
