What is the format of the GRE?
There are three sections to the GRE: the Analytical Writing, the Quantitative Section, and the Verbal Section. The Analytical Writing consists of two writing tasks: Argument Task (30 minutes allotted), and Issue Task (45 minutes allotted). The Quantitative Section contains 28 questions (45 minutes allotted). The Verbal section contains 30 questions on (30 minutes allotted). An unidentified Verbal or Quantitative pretest 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 will always be at the end of the test.
