How do I sign up to take the GRE?
Home » Test Preparation » GRE Test Preparation » How do I sign up to take the GRE?The GRE General Test is administered by computer at a testing center. There is also a paper format of the GRE, available only in parts of the world where computer-based testing can’t be done. To find a testing center near you and register online for the GRE, go to www.ets.org/bin/getprogram.cgi?test=gre. The test costs $115. Currently, graduate school hopefuls can take the GRE on almost any day of the year; but beginning in October of 2006, the Educational Testing Service will administer the GRE on a more limited basis. From then on, there will be about 30 test days a year. This means that you will need to register earlier, to make sure you get the test date you need for your graduate school applications.
Also be sure to figure out whether you need to register for a GRE Subject Test. The ETS administers the GRE Subject Tests only twice a year, usually in December and April. Find out whether your graduate program requires one of the Subject Tests as soon as possible, so that you can register for a test date that is timely for your applications. There are eight Subject Tests: Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology, Chemistry, Computer science, Literature in English, Mathematics, Physics, and Psychology.
