How many sections are on the new GRE?

The GRE (Graduate Record Examination) has six sections in total. The test is divided into two main parts: the Verbal Reasoning section and the Quantitative Reasoning section. Each of these sections is divided into two separate sub-sections.

  • The Verbal Reasoning section includes two sub-sections:
    1. Text Completion
    2. Sentence Equivalence
  • The Quantitative Reasoning section includes two sub-sections: 3. Quantitative Comparison
    1. Problem Solving

There are also two unscored sections, which are used to try out new questions for future GRE tests.

It's important to notice that these sections can appear in any order so you might not have the same order as the one mentioned before.

In addition to the six scored sections, the GRE also includes two unscored sections. These sections are used to try out new questions for future GRE tests and are used to help determine the difficulty of the questions. The unscored sections may be either Verbal Reasoning or Quantitative Reasoning, and will be similar in format to the scored sections.

The test also includes a research section, which is also unscored, it's used to gather information about the test takers. Research section can be a survey or an additional Verbal or Quantitative section.

The total testing time for the GRE is about 3 hours and 45 minutes, including a 1-minute break after each section and a 10-minute break after the third section.

It's important to note that the test format and structure may change over time, so it's always best to check with the official website of the GRE for the most up-to-date information.
