The Graduate Record Examinations(R) (GRE(R)) revised General Test and Subject Tests are taken by individuals applying to graduate programs in natural sciences, engineering, social sciences, business, humanities and arts, education, and other fields. For more than 60 years, GRE scores have been used by admissions and fellowship panels at thousands of graduate and business school programs around the world to supplement an applicant's undergraduate grades and other qualifications for graduate study. This Bulletin provides information about GRE tests, policies and procedures for testing, and information about GRE services and publications. The Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) Program is administered by Educational Testing Service under policies determined by the GRE Board, an independent board affiliated with the Association of Graduate Schools (AGS) and the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS). The GRE Board and Educational Testing Service are dedicated to the principle of equal opportunity, and their programs, services and employment policies are guided by that principle. If state legislation that affects the GRE tests is enacted and becomes effective during the 2012-13 testing year, testing may be curtailed in the states in which the new laws would apply. GRE scores are not the property of the examinee even though the use, reporting and cancellation of scores are subject to various rights and restrictions as indicated in this Bulletin. The policies and procedures explained in this Bulletin are effective only for the 2012-13 testing year (July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2013) and supersede previous policies and procedures. The fees, terms and conditions contained in this Bulletin are subject to change. Visit www.ets.org/gre for the most up-to-date information. Copyright (c) 2012 by Educational Testing Service.

This option lets you decide which test scores to send to the institutions you designate. You can send scores from your most recent test administration or scores for all of the times you've taken a GRE test as part of your four FREE score reports. After test day, you can send scores from your Most Recent, All or Any specific test administration(s) for a fee when ordering Additional Score Reports. Just remember, scores for a test administration must be reported in their entirety. This new option is part of the more test-taker friendly GRE revised General Test. It helps you approach test day with more confidence, knowing you can send scores you feel show your personal best. The new ScoreSelect option will be available, starting in July 2012, for both the GRE revised General Test and GRE Subject Tests, and can be used by anyone with reportable scores from the last five years. See page 22. GRE(R) revised General Test In August 2011, the GRE revised General Test replaced the GRE(R) General Test. Featuring the new test-taker friendly design and new questions, the revised test more closely reflects the kind of thinking you will do in graduate or business school and demonstrates that you are ready for graduate-level work. In most regions of the world, the computer-based GRE revised General Test is available on a continuous basis throughout the year. In Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Korea, the computer- based test is available one to three times per month. In areas of the world where the computer-based test is not available, the test is administered in a paper-based format up to three times a year in October, November and February. The GRE revised General Test measures 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. The test closely aligns with the types of skills that are required for success in today's demanding graduate and business school programs. The test is composed of Analytical Writing (AW), Verbal Reasoning (V) and Quantitative Reasoning (Q) sections. Testing time is listed below. Computer-based revised General Test AW: one section with two separately timed tasks: Analyze an Issue -- 30 minutes Analyze an Argument -- 30 minutes V: two 30-minute sections -- 20 questions per section Q: two 35-minute sections -- 20 questions per section In addition, an unidentified unscored section may be included and may appear in any order after the Analytical Writing section. It is not counted as part of your score. An identified research section that is not scored may be included, and it is always at the end of the test. Paper-based revised General Test AW: two sections -- one writing task per section: Analyze an Issue -- 30 minutes Analyze an Argument -- 30 minutes V: two 35-minute sections -- 25 questions per section Q: two 40-minute sections -- 25 questions per section GRE(R) Subject Tests The GRE Subject Tests can help you stand out from other applicants by emphasizing your knowledge and skill level in a specific area. If you are majoring in one of the subjects listed below, you might want to take a Subject Test in addition to the GRE revised General Test. Subject Tests may not be required by schools, but they are a great way to distinguish yourself and show you are serious about your studies and your future. The Subject Tests are paper-based tests in eight subject areas. Subject Tests measure achievement in specific subject areas and assume undergraduate majors or extensive background in those disciplines. Testing time is 2 hours and 50 minutes. Brief descriptions of the Subject Tests follow: B22 -- Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology The test consists of approximately 175 questions and is intended for students who are interested in graduate programs in biochemistry, cell biology and molecular biology, along with related programs such as microbiology and genetics. The questions are distributed among three subscore areas: Biochemistry (36%), Cell Biology (28%) and Molecular Biology and Genetics (36%). B24 -- Biology The test consists of approximately 194 questions that are distributed among three subscore areas: Cellular and Molecular Biology, Organismal Biology and Ecology and Evolution. C27 -- Chemistry The test consists of approximately 130 questions designed to cover much of the content of the chemistry courses completed by students before the middle of the senior collegiate year. The questions are classified approximately as follows: analytical chemistry (15%), inorganic chemistry (25%), organic chemistry (30%) and physical chemistry (30%). C29 -- Computer Science The test consists of approximately 70 questions and is intended for students who plan to seek a graduate degree in computer science and who have taken courses in computer science at least to the level of an undergraduate major in computer science. The questions are classified approximately as follows: software systems and methodology (40%), computer organization and architecture (15%), theory and mathematical background (40%) and other topics, such as artificial intelligence, cryptography and social issues (5%). L64 -- Literature In English The test consists of approximately 230 questions on literature in English from the British Isles, the United States and other countries. It also contains a few questions on major works, including the Bible, in translation. Factual questions test a student's knowledge of writers typically studied in college courses. Interpretive questions test a student's ability to read passages of poetry, drama, fiction and nonfiction prose perceptively; such questions may address meaning, use of language, form and structure, literary techniques and various aspects of style. The questions are classified as follows: literary analysis (40-55%), identification (15-20%), cultural and historical contexts (20-25%), history and theory of literary criticism (10-15%). In addition, the literary-historical scope of the test is as follows: continental, classical and comparative literature through 1925 (5-10%); British literature to 1660, including Milton (25-30%); British literature 1660-1925 (25-35%); American literature through 1925 (15-25%); American, British and World literatures after 1925 (20-30%). 7 About the GRE Tests (continued) M68 -- Mathematics The test consists of approximately 66 questions and is intended to measure both the knowledge of the content of undergraduate mathematics courses for mathematics majors and the mathematical abilities traditionally expected of those who intend to seek a graduate degree in mathematics. In addition to the usual sequence of elementary calculus courses, the examinee should have had mathematics-major courses in abstract algebra, linear algebra and real analysis that require students to demonstrate the ability to prove theorems and create counterexamples. The questions are classified approximately as follows: calculus (50%), algebra (25%) and other topics (25%). The other topics may include: discrete mathematics and algorithmic processes, differential equations, topology and modern geometry, complex analysis, probability and statistics, logic and foundations and numerical analysis. P77 -- Physics The test consists of approximately 100 questions, most of which relate to the first three years of undergraduate physics. Topics include classical mechanics (20%), electromagnetism (18%), atomic physics (10%), optics and wave phenomena (9%), quantum mechanics (12%), thermodynamics and statistical mechanics (10%), special relativity (6%) and laboratory methods (6%). The remaining 9% of the test covers advanced topics such as nuclear and particle physics, condensed matter physics and astrophysics. P81 -- Psychology The test consists of approximately 205 questions drawn from courses most commonly offered at the undergraduate level. Most of the questions are distributed between two subscore areas: Experimental Psychology (40%), including learning, language, memory, thinking, sensation and perception and physiological/behavioral neuroscience; and Social Psychology (43%), including clinical and abnormal, lifespan development, personality and social. The remaining 17% of the questions test other topics, predominately measurement and methodology, and also history, industrial/organizational and educational psychology. The test's total score includes the questions in all three categories.

Additional Services GRE (R) Search Service The FREE GRE Search Service matches you with participating graduate and business schools and fellowship sponsors. If you match the recruitment profile of a participating institution/organization, you may be sent information about their programs, admission requirements, financial aid opportunities, fellowships and other graduate education opportunities. It is a great way to broaden your search and learn about graduate and business school programs you might not have otherwise considered. You will be given the option to sign up for the Search Service when you register for a GRE test. If you would like to participate in the service before you take a GRE test, you may sign up for the Search Service at any time at www.ets.org/mygre. See "My GRE Account" on page 9. When you participate in the Search Service, your background information, contact information and broad score ranges into which your test scores fall will be added to the Search Service database so that participating institutions can locate you. Information provided to participating schools does not include individual GRE test scores. To learn more about the service, visit www.ets.org/gre/stusearch. E T S (R) Personal Potential Index (E T S(R) PPI) When used with GRE scores, E T S(R) PPI gives graduate and business schools an even more complete picture of your potential for success. E T S PPI provides them with qualitative and quantitative feedback about you based on six core personal attributes that graduate deans and faculty have identified as critical for success at the graduate level -- including resilience, communication skills and teamwork. All you need to do is ask faculty, supervisors or other appropriate individuals to complete a short online evaluation providing feedback on your performance in these areas. You select multiple evaluations to include in a customized E T S PPI Evaluation Report that is then sent to institutions to help round out your application portfolio. It is a great opportunity to show prospective programs more of what you can offer. If you register for the GRE revised General Test, you can send up to four free E T S PPI Evaluation Reports -- that's a US80 dollar value. Additional reports can be sent for US20 dollars each. And, you can include evaluations in the E T S PPI Evaluation Reports for up to five years from the date they were completed.

Preventing Unauthorized Release of Your Scores It is a GRE Board policy that your scores be reported only to you, to institutions of higher education granting the baccalaureate or higher degrees, to approved graduate fellowship-granting sponsors and to vendors the score recipients might designate to process the scores they receive. Score reports will be released only upon your request. E T S will not release your scores at the request of institutions or fellowship sponsors except for use in research studies that are approved by the GRE Board and that provide anonymity for the test takers and the institutions they attend. Note: Your score record and the documents you completed that are retained at E T S may be released to third parties, e.g., government agencies, parties to a lawsuit, if requested pursuant to a subpoena or required by applicable law. GRE Diagnostic Service Computer-based Tests only grediagnostic.ets.org If you have taken the computer-based GRE revised General Test and have received your official E T S score report in the mail, use this free service to view information about your performance on the Verbal and Quantitative sections of your computer-based GRE revised General Test.

Plan to be at the test center up to two hours. To reschedule, contact the center no later than three full days before your appointment. The rescheduling fee is US50 dollars and there are no refunds for this service. Test Takers' Background Information Data and Performance Data Test takers' answers to background information questions and their performance data may be used in analysis samples, score interpretation data, group statistics and research studies. Test takers' essay responses may be used in E T S materials to train scorers, to help score recipients interpret scores or to help examinees prepare for the test. In each instance, all identifying information will be removed. E T S Review of Test Questions E T S routinely follows extensive review and quality control procedures to detect and avoid flawed questions and consequent errors in scoring. Such procedures include independent reviews by qualified individuals, pretesting questions for the General Test, feedback from test takers after they have taken a GRE test and careful analysis of performance data on each question after it has been administered in a GRE test. Nonetheless, occasionally an error may be discovered after scores have been reported. Whenever this happens, the specific circumstances are reviewed carefully, and a decision is made about how best to take corrective action that is the most fair to all concerned. Cancellation of Scores by E T S E T S strives to report scores that accurately reflect the performance of every test taker. Accordingly, E T S's standards and procedures for administering tests have two primary goals: giving test takers equivalent opportunities to demonstrate their abilities and preventing any test takers from gaining an unfair advantage over others. To promote these objectives, E T S reserves the right to cancel any test score when, in E T S's judgment, a testing irregularity occurs; there is an apparent discrepancy in a test taker's identification; the test taker engages in misconduct or plagiarism, copying or communication occurs or the score is invalid for another reason. In addition, if E T S has information that E T S considers sufficient to indicate that a test taker has engaged in any activity that affects score validity, such as having someone else take the test for you, obtaining test questions or answers via the Internet, email, text messaging or postings, it will result in score cancellation and/or any other action E T S deems appropriate, including banning you from future tests. You must agree to these terms and conditions when you register for the test and on test day. When, for any of the above reasons, E T S cancels a test score that has already been reported, it notifies score recipients that the score has been canceled. 26 Testing Irregularities "Testing irregularities" refers to problems with the administration of a test. Testing irregularities may result from actions of test takers, test center personnel, E T S, or from natural or man-made causes. When testing irregularities occur, they may affect an individual or groups of test takers. Such problems include, without limitation, administrative errors (such as improper timing, improper seating, defective materials [e.g., improper test forms], and defective equipment); improper access to test content; and other disruptions of test administrations (such as natural disasters or other emergencies). When testing irregularities occur, E T S may decline to score the test or cancel the test score. When, in E T S's judgment it is appropriate to do so, E T S gives affected test takers the opportunity to take the test again as soon as possible without charge. Identification Discrepancies When, in E T S's judgment or the judgment of test center administrators, there is a discrepancy in a test taker's identification, the test taker may be dismissed from the test center. In addition, E T S may decline to score the test or cancel the test score if the documents or photos from the test day cannot be authenticated. Misconduct When E T S or test center administrators find that there is misconduct in connection with a test, the test taker may be dismissed from the test center or E T S may decline to score the test or may cancel the test score. Misconduct includes, but is not limited to, noncompliance with the "Test Center Procedures and Regulations" listed on pages 18-21. Test takers whose scores are canceled will forfeit their test fees and must pay to take the entire GRE test again at a future administration. No record of score cancellations, or the reason for cancellation, will appear on their future score reports sent to colleges, universities and/or fellowship sponsors. Invalid Scores E T S may also cancel scores if, in its judgment, there is substantial evidence that they are invalid for any other reason. Substantial evidence means evidence that is sufficient to persuade a reasonable person; the substantial evidence standard is lower (i.e., requires less proof) than the reasonable doubt, clear and convincing, and preponderance of the evidence standards. Evidence of invalid scores may include, without limitation, discrepant handwriting, unusual answer patterns and inconsistent performance on different parts of the test. Before canceling scores pursuant to this paragraph, E T S notifies the test taker in writing about its concerns, gives the test taker an opportunity to submit information that addresses E T S's concerns, considers any such information submitted and offers the test taker a choice of options. The options may include voluntary score cancellation, a free retest or arbitration in accordance with E T S's standard Arbitration Agreement. In addition, the test taker is sent a copy of a booklet, Why and How Educational Testing Service Questions Test Scores, which explains this process in greater detail. (This booklet is available to any test taker at any time on request.) Note: The retest option is available only to test takers in the United States and Canada. The arbitration option is available only for tests administered in the United States. Your essay responses on the Analytical Writing section will be reviewed by E T S essay-similarity-detection software and by experienced essay readers during the scoring process. In light of the high value placed on independent intellectual activity within graduate schools and universities, E T S reserves the right to cancel test scores of any test taker when an essay response includes any of the following: --text that is unusually similar to that found in one or more other GRE essay responses; --quoting or paraphrasing, without attribution, language that appears in published or unpublished sources; --unacknowledged use of work that has been produced through collaboration with others without citation of the contribution of others; --essays submitted as work of the test taker that appear to have been borrowed in whole or in part from elsewhere or prepared by another person. When one or more of the above circumstances occurs, E T S may conclude, in its professional judgment, that the essay response does not reflect the independent writing skills that this test seeks to measure. When E T S reaches that conclusion, it cancels the Analytical Writing score, and because Analytical Writing scores are an integral part of the GRE General Test scores, those scores are canceled as well. Test Fairness and Score Use E T S and the GRE Program have taken steps to ensure, to the fullest extent possible, that tests and test scores are fair for all test takers, regardless of group membership. In addition, the GRE Board has developed guidelines for the use of GRE scores, which summarize the considerations for appropriate use of the scores and encourage institutions to use GRE scores appropriately. For information about test fairness and appropriate use of GRE scores, visit www.ets.org/gre/greguidelines. 27 CBT International Regional Registration Centers The Regional Registration Centers (RRCs) and the countries associated with each region are listed below.
