Final Mantra

Syllabus:
Verbal Reasoning:
a. Analyse and draw conclusions,understand and add value to incomplete data; identify the persception of the author;
b. Indentify vital points and differentiate between relevant and irrelevant points;
c. Understand and summarise the structure of a text;
d. Understand the meanings of words, sentences and entire texts;
e. Understand relationships among words and among concepts.

Quantitative Reasoning
The Quantitative Reasoning section measures a candidate's ability to:
a. Understand and analyse quantitative information
b. Interpret quantitative information correctly
c. Solve problems using mathematical models
d. Apply basic mathematical skills and concepts of arithmetic, algebra, geometry and data interpretation.

Analytical Writing
The Analytical Writing section measures a candidate's ability to:
a. Articulate complex ideas effectively and with clarity
b. Support ideas with relevant reasons and examples
c. Examine claims and accompanying evidence
d. Sustain a well-focused, coherent discussion
GRE syllabus
Analytical Writing
Essay Writing tasks,
This section grabs an idea of your critical thinking and analytical writing skills, and portrays your ability to articulate and support complex ideas clearly. This section consists of two analytical writing tasks:
A 45-minute “Present Your Perspective on an Issue” task, and
A 30-minute “Analyze an Argument” task.

VERBAL Test Take Sample Verbal Test
It measures your ability to analyze and evaluate written material and synthesize material information obtained from it, analyze relationships among various parts of the sentences and recognize relationships among words and concepts. The Verbal section consists of- Analogies, Antonyms, Sentence Completions and Reading comprehension.

Quantitative Test- It comes with an idea to measure our PROBLEM-SOLVING skills, focusing on basic concepts of Algebra, Arithmetic, Geometry and Data Analysis.

The GRE Subject Test-

The GRE Subject test is now divided into following seven major areas of specializations-
Mathematics
Physics
Psychology
Chemistry
Biology
Literature in English
Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology

All the subject tests mentioned here have the same syllabus of any standard test. Most of the Indian Engineering students with non CSE IT background go for the Mathematics test in general. The GRE Computer Science Subject Test has been discontinued from April 2013.

More than anything else, your admission to graduate school will depend on your scores on the verbal and quantitative sections of the GRE (not the Subject Test).
