FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a Computer-Adaptive Test?
A Computer-Adaptive Test (CAT) is pretty much what it sounds like: the computer adapts the test to how you answer the questions. You’ll start off the test with a question of medium difficulty. If you answer it correctly, question number two will get a bit more challenging. Get that one right and question number three gets harder still. The opposite is true as well. This system continues until you get to the end of the section and your ability level on that subject is determined.
How many times can I take the GRE?
You may take the GRE no more than once in any calendar month and no more than 5 times within a 12-month period.
