GRE Questions?

[Devilry]

Who here is familiar with GRE credit? If I do a search on the forum its too short.

My question are, i think I have seen they give 30 credits. So can this be used at TESC or EC?

Do they accept full credits for any of the GRE exams? There are the general and specific subject ones.

It looks like they only hold the test 3 times a year .. the next in april, if I start studying now do you think its enough time to pass the exam?

By the way, I am leaning towards enrolling at TESC. If that matters any.

Go ahead and give this a read:

Which online College to choose - BA in 4 weeks degrees by examination and distance learning

Read down to the second or third paragraph and it gives a breakdown for the GRE test as it applies to the different schools. The information is old, but still valid from what I've seen recently.

As for the preperation time needed to pass the thing, I'm afraid I'm clueless on that one. It's my understanding that the GRE subject exams are inclusive of all knowledge in a particular subject that a person would learn in four years of college. That can cover a huge amount of information, but then again I suppose that's why they reward a good score so handsomely.

I am going to take this in April, they also give it in Oct and Nov. What was said about EC is true but to add a bit of info it isnt all or nothing, for an 80 percentile + score you get the full 30 for roughly every 5% lower you lose three credits ie for 75% you get 27 til you hit like 35 and get nada. If you look under my posts I have posted several detailed messages abut this. Look at it this way, the worst that can happen is you blow 130 bucks and get no credit..AND you can always retake it(you can retake it no matter what the score).

BTW the tests they give credit for are the Subject not general, if you google you will get the GRE site which the test subjects.
