WORKING OF THE
GRE EXAM
The Computer Adaptive Test picks the questions based on the candidate
response to the given question. The first question is always of medium
difficulty level and from then on the score starts to increase or
decrease as per the performance of the candidate. A candidate of
higher caliber will get tougher questions than a candidate of a lower
caliber. As the GRE EXAM progresses, the score graph begin to narrow
down to a range and that range will determine the final score.
There are no negative points for wrong answers |
