I'm new and I have questions regarding the GRE as well as reduced enrollment fees via joining a partner organization. I just read (today) that someone joined POAG. I want to join as an associate but the only online option is joining as an active member. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to fill out that online application unless it's valid for both associate & active members.
If I am able to join online, can I in theory join POAG tomorrow and then call Excelsior and mention my membership and pay the reduced enrollment fee? Also, can one pay that fee ($150) in multiple payments? I have an expensive training course I have to pay for soon and need to save as much as possible.
I signed into MyEC and saw that I had applied (paid the $75 application fee) a few years ago in the middle of moving. I didn't request any transcripts be sent but I did ask to be put in their payment plan (I think). Would I have to pay the application fee twice?
Also, I've read recent posts about the Psych subject exam and study aides. Could someone one point me to the same type of info for the Bio exam?
Thanks in advance
Welcome to the forum!
The situation with the POAG website sounds familiar. I think if you search the forum you will be able to find the answer to that question.
I am not aware of anyone on this forum taking the Biology GRE recently. I do know that Sunshine just completed a Biology major through coursework and is considering taking the Biology GRE for graduate school admission. Alissaroot posted some helpful links in the specific exam feedback section. There is also the GRE Subject Test Forums with discussions about each exam - GRE Subject Tests Please keep us updated on your progress; I'm sure it will help others to learn from your experience with it.
