About the Changes to the GRE:

A lot has changed with the new format of the GRE, including the exam content, formatting, and scoring.  However, the core of the exam is basically the same.  The changes are intended to improve the exam’s ability to measure critical reasoning skills and assess likelihood of success in graduate school – the same goal the exam has always had.  The exam will still consist of three sections: Analytical Writing, Verbal Reasoning, and Quantitative Reasoning. Each section has undergone some sort of change.  Our program is designed to help you master the question formats used on the GRE.
