GRE

What is GRE?

The GRE General Test stands for Graduate Record Examination. It thoroughly tests a student's ability in terms of analytical writing, mathematics, verbal reasoning, critical thinking and vocabulary. GRE is the most widely accepted examination by foreign universities to determine a candidate's eligibility for a postgraduate program. Thus, clearing GRE can be considered the gateway to studying in a foreign university. Countries like the USA, Canada and Singapore accept GRE. Apart from graduate schools, many business schools also accept GRE scores and may convert them to equivalent GMAT scores, the generally accepted exam score for management courses.

How to Crack GRE?

Cracking the GRE requires a focused and clear-cut approach coupled with the right guidance provided by people who are highly experienced in this field. Imperial Overseas is one such institution that is the top choice for students seeking GRE training in Mumbai.

The GRE Test is typically considered easier to beat compared to GMAT Test (in which the Verbal Part is Grammar, Critical Reasoning, centric and is Question Level Adaptive and hence challenging) because, even though the mathematics portion tested on the GRE is not much tougher than GMAT, the GRE test general English knowledge and understanding skills rather than Grammar. Hence, a score of 145+ is not very challenging in GRE.

Below are some tips to crack the GRE:

  • Within two months of consistent preparation spending at least 2-3 hrs a day, and practising using standard study materials, can assist you to reach a score of 310+. Thus, A score of 150+ in Verbal and 160+ in Quants is quite doable (TOTAL OF 310+). Our GRE course in Mumbai enables students to achieve just that!
  • How to Crack Acquire High-Level Vocabulary - The most difficult aspect of the GRE is its hard vocabulary. About half of the Verbal Reasoning Questions test your vocabulary knowledge of obscure and sophisticated vocabulary. In this section, you’ll be required to select words or sets of words to fill in the blanks in sentences. This badly affects students whose vocabulary or reading habit is quite poor. Students who don’t even read English news are facing trouble. So, it is better to get into the habit of reading standard English newspapers. Also, students need to use root-word techniques and synonym-antonym pair techniques to master a large number of words. Since the GRE Tests repeat many of the vocab words used, one can revise and become familiar with the frequently used words.
  • How to Handle Time Crunch - Similar to most standardized tests, the GRE Test doesn’t provide much time to answer each question. Students get 30 minutes to write each essay, 30 minutes to answer 20 Verbal questions and 35 minutes to answer 35 Quant questions. This means the student needs to be constantly aware of the time left during the entire test. Keeping track of time every 5 min can greatly assist students to overcome the issue. They need to practice solving questions under Test conditions.
  • How to deal with Multiple Choice Questions - Importantly, no matter how tricky a question is in Verbal or Quantitative Reasoning, you can always make the best guesses since the exam has mostly multiple-choice questions. Also, the good thing is there’s no penalty for guessing. So, if you don’t know how to solve a problem, use your best guess and don’t worry much about it.
  • How to Reduce GRE Stress - Now that you have a better idea of how challenging the GRE is, follow these tips during your preparations so that you’ll feel confident and ready to face the GRE on exam day, no matter how hard the GRE is because you have a strategy in place!

Acceptance Rate for GRE Score Ranging from 290 to 300

What is the Acceptance Rate for GRE Score Ranging from 290 to 300? - It is a question that is often raised by students who are unable to score 310+ in their initial attempts. This is where individual attention to students’ performance and personalized guidance and feedback comes into play. At our GRE preparation in Mumbai, we ask students to give three GRE Mock tests: the first one before training, the second mid-way during training, and the third at the end of training.

Our GRE consultancy in Mumbai, initially, makes them aware of their strengths and weaknesses and gives a study plan. Later we do course correction after the mid-way test. Then, after the third test, we see the extent of learning absorbed and improvement made based on which we advise the TEST Plan. Each student is asked to practice further with their plans and take the 9 remaining tests for getting used to TEST Mode regularly.

Fee Structure After Clearing GRE

Whether a student gets admitted with GRE or without GRE does not affect any University FEE Structure. But students who score high GRE and or TOEFL/IELTS Scores may obtain sizable Scholarships which are quite beneficial.

GRE Eligibility to study Abroad:

GRE Eligibility score varies from University to University and Course to Course. From our experience with a broad range of students applying to a large number of universities, it is clear that 310 + is a score that assists in obtaining admission to most Universities whereas some TOP Tier Universities may require a score of 325+ for admission. But other factors of a student’s profile such as GPA, experience, Projects, Internships and Industry Experience also play an important role.

GRE Exam Fees:

As of today, GRE Exam Fees for India are $213.00 and the Rupee rate per dollar varies daily

GRE Online Coaching to Study Abroad:

At our GRE study programs in Mumbai, we offer both Weekday and Weekend LIVE ONLINE GRE Coaching as well as OFFLINE GRE Coaching at all Imperial Centres.
