The score range of Chinese and mathematics in the new GRE test is 130- 170, and 1 is the smallest unit. The new scoring method helps to avoid the situation that the score difference is very low because of doing one more question in the current exam, and makes the score calculation more accurate and reasonable. The score range of the composition test is still 0-6, and 0.5 is the smallest unit.

Compared with the old GRE test, the main changes of the new GRE scoring method are verbal reasoning (hereinafter referred to as "Chinese") and quantitative reasoning (hereinafter referred to as "mathematics"), and the scoring method of analytical writing (hereinafter referred to as "writing") is consistent with the old GRE test.

How appropriate is the GRE score when applying for a prestigious American school?

1, taking science and engineering as an example:

If students intend to apply to the top 50 universities in the United States, they must get a GRE score of 365,438+00 or above. If students intend to apply to the top 30 universities in the United States, they need to get a GRE score of 320 or above, which are relatively safe scores. I hope the students will work hard to achieve it. If you have strong scientific research ability and have achieved excellent results, such as publishing academic papers and winning international awards, then your GRE score is slightly lower.

2. Take the liberal arts as an example:

If students intend to apply for liberal arts majors, the requirements for GRE scores are even higher. For example, applying for journalism at Columbia University requires about 330 points, and candidates' composition scores should be above 4 points. The average composition score of media majors like the University of Florida is 4.5.
