新GRE考试需要花上4个小时。有些人或许要花费四个小时以上。那么,分配到新GRE考试每一部分上的时间是多少呢?下面出国留学网小编就为大家介绍GRE考试流程及时间安排,官方对GRE考试流程及GRE各部分考试时间配情况如下。
GRE考试分为多个部分,GRE考试每部分的时间略有不同,其中包括10分钟休息时间以及五分钟选择是否保留成绩时间。值得说明的是,虽然这里将Verbal和数学部分的时间计算了总和,但在实际考试中这两部分为穿插进行。根据各位遇到的加试是V或Q,有可能出现VQVQV或QVQVQ的考试组成。
Below is the actual time given for each section. Based on your experience taking practice tests and working on your speed you can adjust accordingly to answer the question: How long is the GRE for me?
Testing center check-in: 5-20 minutes
At a bare minimum you have to sign in, the staff has to take your finger/palm print, and you have to figure out the locker experience. The minimum time for you to actually sit down at the computer screen is five minutes.
You can also have the unenviable experience of getting stuck behind a line of people, which typically has to do with the testing center's lack of efficiency. In these extreme cases you may have to wait as long as twenty minutes to actually sit down at the computer.
Filling in information: 5-15 minutes
If you are taking the GRE for the first time, you will have to enter in quite a lot of personal information (don't worry – this doesn't figure into your score!). This process may take as long as fifteen minutes.
How long is the writing section? 1 hour
Again, if you are a fast writer you may take a little less time. However, I'm guessing 99% of test takers will use the maximum time allotted for the essays. Of course you can always find ways to cut down on your essay writing time.
How long are the verbal sections? 1 hour
Each section is 30 minutes. The verbal sections do not follow back to back, unless the experimental section is a verbal section. I am just lumping the two verbal sections together to indicate the total time. Many students struggle with pacing on Reading comprehension.
How long are the math sections? 70 minutes
Same as applies to verbal section, save for the fact that each section is 35 minutes. Of course, you'll be happy here to have those precious extra 5 minutes. Here's some tips on saving time with GRE math.
Experimental section: 30 or 35 minutes
You may have noticed that each math section is five minutes longer than the verbal section. So if you end up getting a math section for an experimental section, expect to spend another five minutes in the testing center.
Timed break: 10 minutes
You do not need to take this break, but for a better test score—and your sanity—I highly recommend you do.
Score accept screen: 5 minutes
You have five minutes to determine whether you want to accept or reject your score. While you might be feeling the pressure here, at least you're done! Breathe!
Totals:
Checking in time: 10-25 minutes
Actually taking the GRE time: 4 hours
Therefore from the time you walk into the testing center to the time you walk out, you are looking at close to four and a half hours. Yikes! Because it's obviously so exhausting to sit through the entire test, I really recommend taking at least a couple of practice tests that simulate the real thing before test day – that means no interruptions for 4 and a half hours! Can you do it?
