GRE-GRADUATE RECORD EXAMINATION

GRE-revised GENERAL TEST

GRE revised General Test replaced the GRE General Test in August 1, 2011.
Prospective graduate and business graduate and business school applicants from all around the world who are interested in pursuing a Master’s, MBA, or Doctoral Degree take the GRE revised General Test.
Applicants come from varying educational and cultural back grounds and the GRE revised General Test provides schools with a common measure for comparing candidates’ qualifications.
GRE scores are used for admissions or by fellowship panels to supplement your undergraduate records, recommendation letters and other qualifications for graduate level study.
Good GRE score is required not only in securing admission in top schools but also in wining financial aid/ scholarship for a candidate as GRE scores do enjoy a heavy weight in decisions concerning scholarship awards.
Some scholarships, USAID Fulbright Scholarship, can be secured with a good GRE score.
GRE revised GENERAL Test is the only Admission Test for Graduate or Business School that lets you skip questions within a section, go back and change answers, and have control to tackle the questions within a section you want to answer first.
Although universities mostly require GMAT scores for their business school programs, such as, MBA and other Graduate Management Course, over 700 business schools around the world now accept GRE scores for these programs as well.
GRE measures a student’s Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Critical Thinking and Analytical Writing Skills-disciplines that are not specific to any individual field of study, but essential for all and important for success in graduate or business school.

Among thousands of foreign universities, 14 Pakistani Universities including LUMS and SZABIST consider GRE scores for admissions in their various programs.
