The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test is a multiple-choice test for applicants who want to pursue their higher education overseas. The test intends to aid graduate schools in assessing an applicant’s potential for advanced study.

The GRE is administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS), under the sponsorship of the Graduate Record Examinations Board.

Who Needs to Write the GRE? For Which Courses Do We Need to Write the GRE?
