Frequently Asked Questions

What is on the GRE General Test?

The current GRE General Test includes Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, and Analytical Writing. The scored objective sections contain 54 questions in total, while Analytical Writing asks you to write one essay. Its shorter structure means pacing still matters quite a bit.

How long is the GRE General Test?

The GRE General Test takes 1 hour and 58 minutes of timed session time. That includes the two Verbal Reasoning sections, two Quantitative Reasoning sections, and one Analytical Writing task. Plan to arrive early at a center or complete the required check-in for an at-home appointment.

What is a good GRE score?

Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning are each reported on a 130–170 scale, and Analytical Writing is reported on a 0–6 scale. A good score depends on the programs you are targeting and their typical admitted-student ranges. Compare your goals with each program's published expectations rather than relying on one universal number.

How much does the GRE cost?

The GRE General Test fee is $220 in the United States as of 2026, though fees can differ by location and extra services may cost more. ETS also offers a fee-reduction program for eligible applicants. Check the official registration page before booking, since fees can change.

Is the GRE computer-delivered?

Yes. The GRE General Test is administered by computer at most test centers and is also available at home where offered. The computer format lets you move among questions within a section, mark questions for review, and use an on-screen calculator in the Quantitative Reasoning sections.

How should I use GRE practice questions?

Start untimed so you can learn the reasoning behind every answer, including the tempting wrong choices. Then work short, timed sets to develop pacing and identify patterns in your misses. A free GRE practice test is most useful when you review it carefully instead of simply counting correct answers.

Can I use a calculator on the GRE?

You may use the on-screen calculator provided for Quantitative Reasoning questions. Personal calculators are not permitted. It is still helpful to practice estimation and basic arithmetic, because reaching for the calculator on every problem can eat up valuable time.
