Question for people who have already taken a GRE

[alissaroot]

I am not familiar with the FCAT, but there is a scoring penalty for every question answered wrong on the GRE. For example:

200 questions total
150 correct
0 incorrect
raw score will be 150

but

200 questions total
150 correct
50 incorrect x .25 = -12.5
raw score will be 138

So wrong answers can really cause your score to go down, even if you have the same amount of correct questions as someone who left 50 questions blank.

I took a bunch of practice tests leading up to the GRE Psych, and I would recommend trying some tests with guessing and some without. I noticed my score dramatically improved when I guessed, so I decided to guess on the real thing.
