I wanted to know which universities i could apply to. I have a GRE score of 1120 and a GPA of 3.5..

Hello—the question is as follows:

Over the course of a year, a certain factory increased its output by 90%. At the same time, it decreased its total working hours by 20%. By what percent did the factory increase its output per hour?

The answer is 137.5%, not 237.5% like I had gotten as an answer.

Please help if you can!

I recently took the GRE. I got a 600 on the verbal, 560 on the quantitative and a 5.5 on the writing portion. Unlike most other people posting on here, my verbal skills are better than my math. Here’s my question: I want to apply for the Master’s in Counseling Psychology program at a local public university in MD. Do you think my scores are good enough? They only take about 1 in 5 people who apply. Of course, other factors are considered: personal statement, letters of recommendation, etc. My undergrad overall GPA was 3.42. Just thought I would throw this question out there before I waste to apply. Thanks for any help!
Thanks for all of the advice! My school of choice states only "acceptable performance" is required for the GRE. I applied as non-degree seeking last year, but they wouldn’t let me sign up for relevant classes (limited them to degree seeking only). Guess that defeated the purpose of trying to take classes and then getting them to transfer! In any case, I will apply and cross my fingers. Thanks again!

Hi – I plan on taking the GRE this October and instead of the super pricey Princeton Review course I’ve been looking at test prep given help by tutors online such as TutorVista. Has anyone used them? Are they credible, did it help? What are the other best test prep methods you’ve used?
Thanks much!

Hi. I’m in junior year in a university.
My major is not physics, but I need to take a GRE Physics Test for the graduate school.

Although my university advisor recommended me to take about 3 advanced physics courses (Mechanics and Relativity 1, Quantum Physics 1, and Electromagnetic Field 1) before taking the GRE Physics test, I only took four physics core courses.

I need to take the test by the end of this year if I want to attend the graduate school right after the graduation. (The deadline for the graduate school is Jan 15 every year.)

Would it be really difficult to take the GRE Physics test without completing above advanced physics courses (Study like a SAT or an ACT test)?

Thanks.

I don’t know how similar the two tests are, but I was thinking I could just sign up for a Princeton Review or a Kaplan course for the MCAT and that might also prepare me for the GRE. The courses are very expensive.

Also, if you recommend that I take a prep class for both tests, could I take them at the same time?

Do you think it is necessary to take both tests? My situation is difficult because I plan on going into the Peace Corps before I go to graduate or medical school, and I’m not sure which I want to do at this point, but I want to take the tests before I go into the Peace Corps, even if I have to take them again later.

Any help you could give me is greatly appreciated, I can’t find information about this anywhere!

for the students studying 3 year undergraduate course….

I am signed up to take a GRE prep course in March. I am in favor of the standardized test like the SAT and such but I really don’t agree with the weight that the GRE holds when applying for graduate school. Think about it. Most go to college and major in ONE thing. For me, I was a Public Relations major. I was required to take only 3 hours worth of math. Yet, I have to do an entire section of math on the GRE and it isn’t all basic math either. Plus, the vocabulary section is crap. It asks you for definitions of words that are not commonly used. Seriously, the meanings of some of those words are outdated and NOBODY uses them in the form that is being asked. If we have to take the exam, fine, but schools shouldn’t put the bulk of their decision on the score. They need to look at all factors like GPA, etc.It all needs to be balanced equally. I was good enough to get into college and graduate but the GRE is trying make us prove we are good enough to keep going? What do you guys think?

I need to sharpen up my points in the GRE so i want to find a place that is available for preparing us for the GRE. I heard a place called Testmasters that has a GRE course but on the website it says 899$ per full course. Is this true? and is there any other places you would recommend for it?
thanks

Are courses like Kaplan and Princeton review worth the cost or will the published books with sample questions adequate?

Is there a good test prep course (ie: Kaplan or Test Masters) and do you think it matter whether I take an online vs. an on-site course?

Hi all, what’s the best GRE review book out there ? planning on taking the GRE this march. Plus, has anyone here ever attended the Powerscore GRE review course and if so, how was it ? Thanks..

I am an International Affairs/Poli Sci double major (Hist minor, because why the hell not?) and I’ll actually be finished with all my courses and credits a semester early (Spring 2011 as opposed to Fall 2012).

My question is what timeline should I follow to take the GRE? I plan on going off to grad school to continue studying International Affairs.

Thanks! If I left out important details, let me know.

I’m a junior majoring in Speech Pathology and Audiology. I want to take the GRE this year, but I don’t know when i’ll have time to study hard for it. I’m taking 18 hrs this semester and I plan on taking 6 hrs in the summer, 18 hrs in the fall. For those of you that have taken the GRE while you were completing your undergrad, how did you study for the exam while studying for your undergrad courses?

I’m going to apply to a biology graduate program, but I don’t have an awesome undergraduate GPA, so I need to do exceptionally well on the biology subject test. I’m not about to part with 00+ for a course, so a book will have to do. Which are the top three biology specific prep books? I’ve been getting a lot of mixed reviews and would appreciate personal advice. Thanks!
