Just wondering what your experience was like.

It's a standardized test required by many graduate schools:

Quote:
Graduate Record Examination or GRE is a commercially run standardized test that is an admission requirement for many graduate schools principally in the United States, but also in other English speaking countries. Created and administered by Educational Testing Service (or ETS) in 1949,[1] the exam is primarily focused on testing abstract thinking skills in the areas of mathematics, vocabulary, and analytical writing. The GRE is typically a computer-based exam that is administered by select qualified testing centers; however, paper-based exams are offered in areas of the world that lack the technological requirements.



Most art schools don't require it, but I'm actually applying for an interdisciplinary visual studies phd program at Harvard that requires it.

I took it - did well enough to get into a masters program that required a different test - but since I had already done it, they accepted it. As I recall, lots of math. Of course - I took it in about 1993. . . .

Harvard? Very cool. . . God bless in your pursuit! Smile

Weird. I have always done well on standardized tests (not ace it well, but pretty well), so I didn't find it really more difficult than other ones. The weird thing is that after I got my results back I talked with people to compare notes, you know, get a feel for how well I did in terms of admission standards and the like. The thing is, nobody knew. Nobody seemed to know what scores were required to get in anywhere or what was considered a good score. Like Wes, though, I think I took mine in maybe 94, so maybe there's more of a feel for those things now. Good luck.
