Yeah, they dropped that. It's now verbal+math+writing.
Possegal--My opinion on the computerized test is that it's a bad thing. It sort of defeats the purpose of a "standardized" test, since the computerized version is an adaptive test. It also means that you can't skip questions that are giving you a hard time.

When I took the GRE (late '80s) it was a 3-part test. The third section was some kind of logic or analytical thing, I think. Did they drop that?

I'm sure we'll BOTH do great!
Oh, and in my experience (two Masters degrees), GRE scores are not that important to grad school. Not nearly as important as all the other factors, including life and work experience, and the ability to write well.Last edited by tulip; 08-30-2009 at 06:06 PM.
