The GRE Subject Tests are designed
to help assess an applicant’s qualifications in specific fields of study.
The scores are intended to indicate knowledge of the subject matter emphasized
in many undergraduate programs as preparation for graduate study, and are helpful
in predicting a student’s success in graduate study. Some Subject Tests
include a sub-score in addition to the total score that indicates the strengths
and weaknesses of an individual’s preparation so as to help them plan
their future studies.
The Subject Exam is offered 3 times
a year. Please
call or check with GRE for specific dates and prices.
