　　What skills does the GRE General Test measure?
　　
　　The GRE General Test measures your verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, critical thinking and analytical writing skills — skills that have been developed over a long period of time and are not related to a specific field of study but are important for all.
　　
　　How is the GRE General Test administered?
　　
　　The GRE General Test is a computer-delivered test offered year-round at home and at test centers around the world.
　　
　　How long is the GRE General Test?
　　
　　The total testing time for the GRE General Test is around three hours and 45 minutes, plus short breaks. Get more details on the timing and tasks for each section.
　　
　　What level of math content is included in the test?
　　
　　The GRE General Test uses the foundations of high school math to test quantitative reasoning. The test material measures your ability to understand basic concepts of arithmetic, algebra, geometry and data analysis; to reason quantitatively; and to solve problems in a quantitative setting.
　　
　　How does the Analytical Writing section differ from the Writing section of the TOEFL iBT® Test?
　　
　　The TOEFL iBT Writing section and GRE Analytical Writing measures are intended to measure different sets of skills. The TOEFL iBT Writing section contains two writing tasks: an independent task asks test takers to support an opinion in writing, and an integrated task that asks test takers to write responses that integrate and organize information from a reading passage and a lecture. These writing tasks are not designed to measure higher levels of critical thinking and analytical writing, but center instead on candidates' composition skills and command of English vocabulary, grammar, spelling, and syntax with some analysis and synthesis of material. Therefore, scores on the two tests are not comparable.
　　
　　Because the TOEFL® test emphasizes fundamental writing and comprehension skills, the TOEFL score can supplement an Analytical Writing score by helping faculty determine whether a low score on the GRE Analytical Writing measure is due to lack of familiarity with English or lack of ability to produce and analyze logical arguments.
