New face of GRE

Forget your GRE jitters and blues because the new Gre is supposed to be user friendly.

Experts say "A new linear GRE replaces old adaptive GRE”. From vocabulary-savvy to reasoning-savvy quant. This time the focus is on real life problems, data interpretation and quantitative reasoning. AWA has been changed into CTAW. The test is lengthier now. New question types have been introduced.

The new GRE tests your skills more on reasoning than vocabulary (so no more mugging this time). Quant will be more oriented towards data interpretation and word problems.

The quant portion will be bit difficult and verbal will be simpler. The duration of the test is over four hours and is valid for five years.

The new pattern is implemented from September 2007 and the registration starts from July and moreover it's a worldwide change.
