Re: subject test gre scores
Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) is a standardized test that is an admissions requirement for most Graduate Schools in the United States.The GRE is owned and administered by Educational Testing Service (ETS) who created it in 1949. Every Subject Test yields a total score on a 200 to 990 score scale, in 10-point increments. Note that each of the individual test scales occupies only a portion of the 200 to 990 score range. The Biology and Psychology Tests also yield subscores on a 20–99 score scale, in one-point increments. Remember that the Verbal and Quantitative portions of the GRE are scored between 130–170, and the average score falls somewhere around 150-152. The Analytical Writing section of the GRE is scored between 0 and 6 in half-point increments, and the average hits somewhere around 3.5.
