In June 2023, ETS (the organization that conducts GRE world-wide) announced enhancements to the current GRE. There are a number of changes that you as a test-taker should be aware of. Here is a summary of the most significant changes.
You will find the details in this ebook- AdmitEDGE GRE Guide
Here are the changes to GRE format:
Key Points:
- In the new format, you only need to write one essay instead of two in the Analytical Writing Section. This means you don't have to practice for the Argument Analysis Essay.
- The Verbal and Quantitative reasoning sections have fewer questions, which reduces the test time. However, since there are fewer questions, each question carries more weight in determining the final score compared to the current format.
- The current format includes an experimental section that could be either Quantitative or Verbal Reasoning, with 20 questions to be answered within a specific time limit. This section doesn't count towards the score, but it's designed to be indistinguishable from other sections, requiring the test-taker's full attention. The new format eliminates this experimental section, reducing the pressure on the test-taker.

Which format of GRE should I aim for?
| Aiming for the Spring 2024 intake | Aiming to apply to universities with priority deadlines of Fall 2024 | Aiming to apply to universities with regular deadlines of Fall 2024 |
| It is best to take the test in the current format since most deadlines would be way before the new format comes into effect | Waiting for the new format might be cutting it close, especially if the decision of the universities to apply to depends on your GRE score. Things can get a bit cramped and hurried. | Either format should be fine. |
Should I change my preparation-strategy for GRE?
