What is the GRE?

The GRE, or Graduate Record Examinations, is a standardized test that is widely accepted by graduate schools in the United States and many other countries as part of their admissions process. It's designed to assess your verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and analytical writing skills. Many applicants use it to apply for programs in fields like engineering, business, humanities, and social sciences. The GRE score is only one factor considered among many, including GPA, letters of recommendation, and personal statements.
