GRE® General Test at Home
To meet the needs of students who are unable to take the GRE® General Test at a test center due to public health concerns, ETS is temporarily offering a GRE General Test at home option. The test is identical in content, format and on-screen experience to the GRE General Test taken at a test center. It is taken on your own computer at home and is monitored by a human proctor online through ProctorU®. At home administrations are currently available around the clock every Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday through June 30, 2020. Appointments may be available as early as 24 hours after you register.
