The exam is conducted at intervals of 21 days in a year.\n<h4>Mode of GRE Exam<\/h4>\nThe GREx can be given either as a Computer-based test or Paper delivered test. The content for the paper of both methods is the same but there is a small variation in the number of questions and timings. Most students prefer computer-based tests because they can use an inbuilt calculator to do calculations. Another advantage of an online test is that you can change answers within the time limit of the paper before submission.\n<h4>Types of GRE Exam<\/h4>\nThe GRE\u00a0is of two types\n<ol>\n \t<li>General GRE<\/li>\n \t<li>Subject Specific GRE<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nThe subject-specific GRE is given by students who want to pursue MS or Ph.D. degree in a particular subject.\n<h4>GRE Exam Subjects<\/h4>\nThe subjects of the Specific GRE are as follow.\n<ul>\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/en\/who-is-a-father-of-chemistry\/\">Chemistry<\/a><\/li>\n \t<li>Maths<\/li>\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/en\/father-of-physics\/\">Physics<\/a><\/li>\n \t<li>Psychology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThe subject-specific GRE exam can be given a maximum of 3 times a year.\nThe format of subject-specific GRE is a paper-pencil test.\n<h4><strong>The Pattern of the GRE exam<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe most common type of GRE exam is the General GRE\u00a0hence will only focus on the pattern of the General GRE. There are a total of three main sections in the GRE\u00a0these are as follows.\n<ol>\n \t<li>Analytical writing ( This part is not considered by all universities)<\/li>\n \t<li>Verbal Section (This part is considered by all universities hence it is compulsory)<\/li>\n \t<li>Quantitative Reasoning (This part is considered by all universities hence it is compulsory)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nIn addition to this, there are two sections which are given below.\n<ol>\n \t<li>Unscored<\/li>\n \t<li>Research<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nThe question in these two sections is dummy questions their mark does not count in preparing the final score they are mixed up in the verbal and quantitative section candidate cannot identify which is a dummy or which is the real question.

If you solve a section in less time then it is assumed by the online computer system that this particular section was easy for you then in the next section it gives a hard question to you. If you still solve it easily it gives you even harder questions in the next section. Contrary to this if you find it difficult to solve a particular section then it will give you easy questions in the next session. What we are trying to say is that sequence of questions in the paper is not fixed for all candidates. It depends upon the difficulty level of a candidate.\n<h3>GRE Exam Syllabus<\/h3>\n<h4>Analytical Writing(score scale: 0-6, with half-point in creates)<\/h4>\nThis is the first section of the exam.
