    What is the GRE ? What are the important things that I need
    to know about GRE ?
    The GRE or Graduate Record Examination [1], is a standardized aptitude
    test offered by a private educational testing and measurement organization
    known as ETS (Educational Testing Services) [2]. This examination
    is designed to measure the candidate’s aptitude for graduate study. It is
    the most widely used test in the United States2. There are two forms of
    the GRE:
    • GRE General Test [3]: The general test specifically measures the
    candidate’s verbal, quantitative and analytical writing aptitude. The
    test is now most commonly offered in a computer-based format instead
    of the older paper-based format. (See next question for a more
    detailed description)
    It is also used in other parts of the world but in this document, we are only talking about
    American universities.
    • GRE Subject Test [4]: The subject tests are designed to test a candidate’s
    knowledge of the subject matter in a particular discipline
    extensively. Subject tests are offered in the following 8 disciplines:
    Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, English
    Literature, Mathematics, Physics and Psychology. Some
    universities require these subject test scores in addition to the general
    test when applying to the Ph.D. program. Even if the test is not
    required, getting a good score in this test will definitely strengthen
    your application.

    2. What kind of questions do the different sections of the GRE
    general test carry ?
    All questions in the general test are multiple-choice questions. The detailed
    descriptions are available at the GRE official site as referenced in
    the last question, but for the sake of completeness, I reproduce them here
    with little modification:
    (a) Verbal: The verbal section measures your ability to analyze and
    evaluate written material and synthesize information obtained from
    it, to analyze relationships among component parts of sentences, to
    recognize relationships between words and concepts, and to reason
    with words in solving problems. There is a balance of passages across
    different subject matter areas: humanities, social sciences, and natural
    sciences.
    (b) Quantitative: The quantitative section measures your basic mathematical
    skills, your understanding of elementary mathematical concepts,
    and your ability to reason quantitatively and solve problems
    in a quantitative setting. There is a balance of questions requiring
    arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis. These are content
    areas usually encountered in the 9th-12th standard curricula.
    (c) Analytical Writing: The analytical writing section tests your critical
    thinking and analytical writing skills. It assesses your ability
    to articulate and support complex ideas, analyze an argument, and
    sustain a focused and coherent discussion. It does not assess specific
    content knowledge.

    3. When should I take the GRE ?
    The answer to this question, as you would expect, depends on what
    semester you want to apply for. Going by estimated deadlines, if you
    are applying for the Fall, I would recommend that you write GRE at the
    latest by October. I say this because this gives you enough time to concentrate
    on the other parts of the application which are almost equally,
    if not more, important than GRE scores. If you are applying for Spring,
    you should have finished with the GRE by June at the latest.

    4. How long does it take for ETS to report to the GRE scores to
    the first 4 universities ? What about after that ?
    According to ETS’s official policy, score reports are mailed to you and
    the 4 institutions, if you designate them on the day of the test, approximately 10-15 days after you take the test. I think we can safely assume the same duration for reporting the scores to new institutions as well, since it is completely electronic now.

    5. Can I apply for admission anytime during the year ?
    No. Most universities in the U.S. accept applications only two times in
    a calendar year. Before we discuss that, let me give you a brief breakdown of the academic year as. The academic year is usually divided into 4 semesters - Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. The semesters are usually 13 weeks long but this is not a hard and fast constraint. The Fall
    semester starts somewhere between August and September and ends in
    late December or early January. The Spring semester starts in January
    and ends in May. The Summer semester starts in late May or early June
    and ends just before the Fall semester begins. Not all universities have a
    Winter semester but if they do, it is a very short semester squeezed between the Fall and the Spring semesters. The semesters correspond very roughly with the eponymous seasons.

    Now on to the actual answer of this question. Most universities will accept
    admission applications for the Fall and the Spring semesters of the
    academic year. Please beware, the some universities only entertain applications for the Fall semester.

    6. What are the deadlines for applying in Spring? In Fall ?
    This is one of the silliest questions that I see asked around. Let me answer
    this one final time: Each university has its own deadlines for applications
    for the two semesters. There is no one deadline. If you want to find
    deadlines for specific universities, please consider using a very well known
    invention called Google. Find the website of the university, go to the
    section for prospective students and you will find all the deadlines listed
    there, along with almost all information that you could ever require. In
    general, please consider doing a little bit of research yourself before asking others.
    If you still need a very general idea of the deadlines, Fall semesters usually have an application deadline of mid December or early January, whereas Spring deadlines are usually in August or September.

    7. Is there any difference between applying for the Fall semester
    and the Spring semester ?
    Yes, there is absolutely a difference between those two semesters. The academic year in all United States universities begins with the Fall semester.
    Therefore, most assistantship and fellowship positions also begin at around
    the same time. In fact, some universities (line mine, for example) do not
    even entertain Spring applications unless you can demonstrate mitigating
    circumstances or you are an existing student. In short, if you are applying
    for the Spring semester you have the following disadvantages:
    • You are applying in the middle of the academic year when the number
    of admits granted is definitely lower than in the Fall.
    • Financial aid for the Spring semester is very rare.
    • This is relatively unimportant but since the academic year starts in
    the Fall, all the core courses are offered mostly in the Fall. This may
    cause a little problem with planning your coursework.
    Therefore, my advice is to apply in the Fall unless there are some exceptional circumstances and you cannot help it.

    8. What will I need for my application, besides standardized test
    scores ?
    Every university has detailed and specific guidelines in their application
    brochure about the documents that they will need you to submit with the
    application. However, it is good to have a general idea of the sort of documents that are usually needed for an application to be deemed complete. Here is a list:
    • College Transcripts: A transcript is another name for a marksheet
    provided by your college or university at the end of each semester,
    that lists in detail the courses taken and the grades obtained in these
    courses. You are allowed to send notarized copies of your transcripts
    with the application. The admission will then be contingent upon
    your providing the original transcripts when you join. Another point
    is that since you will usually send out your applications before you
    have graduated from your college, it is okay to provide the marksheets
    only up to that semester. However, you will need to provide the rest
    when you join.
    • Letters of Recommendation: Most universities require you to
    provide three letters of recommentation. The faculty members in your department are the best people to ask for these letters. However, if you did an internship at another institution or corporation, getting a letter from your mentor or supervisor would be a big plus. Some universities will provide actual recommendation forms that you may get filled out by your references, in lieu of letters. In general, a good letter of recommendation would touch upon not only your academic achievements but also your analytical and problem-solving skills and preferable provide some anecdotal examples.
    • Statement of Purpose: This will possibly turn out to be the most
    important document in your application. A statement of purpose
    can best be described as a document for your academic past and
    the future. It should clearly describe why you chose your particular
    acadmic discipline, why you are interested in pursuing graduate study
    in that discipline ir why you are interested in a different discipline
    than the one you did your bachelor’s degree in. It should also clearly
    outline the ideas you have about what you would like to do and what
    you are interested in researching. It is very important that these
    ideas and interests mesh with the interests of a group of a faculty
    member at that university, which you should find out and mention
    in the statement. You should also read some of the research that
    the group or the faculty member has published in conferences and
    journals to find out more about the kind of research that they do and
    the direction that it is headed in. This will help you immensely.
    dont hurt urself take it easy :D:D

  5. #5
    Financial Support Statement: Another important document is
    the financial support statement. This is usually in the shape of a
    form provided with the application. In this document, you will usually
    provide declare your financial assets to show that you will be able
    to support the first year of your graduate education at the university.
    You will probably need to provide notarized bank statements along
    with this statement. However, it is entirely possible that you may
    not need to submit this until you have been granted an admission
    to the university. It usually depends upon the university admission
    policy.

    9. How do I prepare the financial support statement ? Why is it
    important ?
    The financial support statement is a declaration of your financial assets to
    prove to the admissions committee of a university that you will be able to
    support yourself during your graduate study program. However, it is not
    the case that you will necessarily have to declare enough assets to cover
    the entire cost of the first year. It is actually up to you what you want to
    do here. There is usually a question on the application asking something
    along the lines of “Will you be able to attend this university if you are not
    provided any financial aid ?” If you answer that question in the affirmative,
    you should show as many assets as possible in the financial statement
    so that they will see that you can support yourself during your stay there.
    However, if you say “no” to that question, then they know that your acceptance of the admission offer is contingent on provision of financial aid
    and they will not put as much emphasis on the financial statement.
    The reason the financial statement is so important is because it is essential
    to procure what is commonly known as the I-20 form. The Certificate of
    Visa Eligibility for Nonimmigrant F-1 Student Status is commonly known
    as the I-20. This is the document issued by a university through the
    internet-based Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS)
    for presentation at the U.S. embassy to apply for an F-1 Student
    visa; it must also be presented to an immigration official upon entry into
    the U.S. In short, you will not get a visa without an I-20 and you will only
    get an I-20 if you satisfy the financial constraints. Therefore, the financial
    statement is critical to the application process.

    10. How do I decide which universities to apply to ?
    This is one of the most frequently asked questions and the answer is not as straightforward as you would like it to be. This is one of the highly subjective questions that you will be encountering as your proceed through
    the application process. Before we talk about the factors that should in-
    fluence your decision, let me provide a few useful sources of information
    about Graduate Schools in the US:
    • US News Rankings: Every year, the periodical US News & World
    Report comes out with their rankings of US Graduate Schools categorized
    by the various disciplines. These rankings are based on
    factors such as the number of graduating PhD students, the number
    of permanent faculty members, and the amount obtained by the
    faculty in research grants etc. It is important to note that these
    rankings are not the only rankings out there. These are just relatively
    more comprehensive and more trusted rankings than the other
    ones. Only the general rankings are usually available for free. If you
    want detailed rankings in your own discipline, they are usually just
    a google-search away. If you cannot find them, email me and I will
    try and get them for you3
    • PhDs.org: This is a very useful website based on the graduate
    school statistics provided by the National Research Council. The
    one really good thing about this website is that you can actually use
    the interactive rankings form to generate rankings according to your
    Not each discipline is ranked every year. For example, Computer Science was last ranked in 2002 and has not been ranked again since then. This comes in handy when you want to weight things
    like financial aid much higher than other factors.
    • USEFI Centers: USEFI(United States Education Foundation in
    India), also known as the Fulbright Commission, is an organization
    that was started in 1950 for the purpose of promoting academic
    exchanges between India and the United States. They are headquartered
    in Connaught Place in New Delhi and have offices in the other
    metropolitan cities as well. They have detailed guides about all US
    Universities and also hold various seminars about finding fellowships
    and scholarships for your graduate study in the US. I would definitely
    recommend doing some serious research in their offices for coming up
    with a preliminary list of the universities.
    OK, now that we have resources for you to find out information about all
    the universities, let’s talk about what all should factor in your thinking:
    • Research interests: It is important to understand that the programs
    of graduate study in the US that we are talking about here -
    M.S and Ph.D. - entail research. You should have a clear idea of the
    areas in your discipline that intrigue you and that you are interested
    in exploring further. If the only reason you want to do an M.S. is to
    get a more lucrative software engineering or programming, this might
    not turn out to be important for you during your M.S but you will
    certainly need it to get admitted. Your statement of research (also
    known as the statement of purpose) should be very well focused and
    plainly describe your reasons for pursuing graduate study. You might
    be able to secure an admission with a weak SOP, but certainly not
    financial aid.
    Once you have your research interests decided, find the universities
    that do good research in these areas, get lots of grants for the same
    and also hire a lot of students in these labs. Use the above resources
    and also try and contact other students from your college that have
    gone to the US, since they may have a better idea about these things.
    • Test Scores: Test scores are not the sole deciding factor in your
    admission, as most people think. They are certainly important as
    they indicate your aptitude for graduate study, but that’s all they
    are - an indication. If you get too low of a score, you will certainly
    have problems getting into the relatively higher-ranked universities.
    Getting an extremely good score will help. However, If you are in the
    relatively upper percentile range of, say 1400-1500, your exact score
    does not matter. Yes, that’s right. Once you are in that range, it is
    all the same.
    The only part TOEFL scores play is to determine your English speaking
    and comprehension skills. If you test in the right range, their work
    is over. If you test too low, however, universities may admit you only
    on the condition that you will attend some English classes once you
    get to the U.S.
    • Alumni: I would suggest that you strongly consider universities
    where students from previous batches of your college have secured
    admission and financial aid. Chances are that if they have admitted
    students from the past and have been generally satisfied with their
    quality, they will almost certainly admit you as well.
    • Geographic factors: Sometimes it is also important to consider
    the location of the university that you are considering applying to.
    Industries concentrated in particular states tend to hire heavily from
    the universities around them. For example, Dell - which is based in
    Austin, Texas, hires a lot of engineers from Texas A&M University,
    University of Texas at Austin and University of Texas at Arlington.
    If you are interested in automotive engineering, consider applying
    close to Detroit, where the Big Three (Ford, General Motors and
    Chrysler) are based. Similarly, Maxtor - a hard-drive and storage
    appliance corporation based in Denver - hires engineers from University
    of Colorado at Boulder.
    I think that about sums up the not-so-short answer to this oft asked question.

    11. How do I prepare for that infernal Verbal section of the GRE ?
    Another very common question for Indian students and also another very
    subjective question. Each and every one of us has a different way of learning
    new things and so there can’t be any one way for all of us to prepare.
    I think the best thing I can do here is to outline the way that I prepared
    for this section and hopefully a lot of you will get some good pointers and
    direction.
    (a) It’s all about the roots: Blindly stuffing the meaning of words into
    your brain by going through some list is the worst way to prepare
    for this section. You will have to remember an unmanageably large
    chunks of information. As engineers, you should realize that if you
    can remember words together as groups, the storage efficiency will
    be much higher. The easiest way to remember groups of words is
    to via their etymology, or the way that the word originated. If you
    remember the roots, you will be able to infer the meaning of even
    a completely new word that you encounter for the first time. Let’s
    look at an example. Consider the word euthanasia. If you learn the
    roots of this word, you will learn that:
    dont hurt urself take it easy :D:D

  6. #6
    • eu- is a Greek root, meaning “good”
    • -thanasia is derived from the Greek “Thanatos” who was the god
    of death.
    Therefore, the complete word means “good death”, which is what we
    know. Now, say you come across the word thanatophobic. Chances
    are that you have not seen this word before. No need to panic ! Roots
    will always help you out:
    • We know that thanato- refers to “death”.
    • Everyone knows (or should know) that -phobic means “someone
    afraid of something”.
    Therefore, this adjective refers to someone afraid of dying. Voila !
    A very good book which emphasizes learning the roots of words is
    Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis [9].
    (b) Flash Cards: Another very popular and effective method is using
    flash cards for writing down words and their meanings. I used flash
    cards to write down not only the different meanings but also examples
    of usage for particularly difficult words. I went through them
    every night and every morning.
    (c) Read, Read and Read: I know that most people begin GRE preparations
    with a short window of time but if you are smart enough
    to be starting a year or 2 years early, the one thing that I cannot
    stress enough is the importance of reading. It may be newspapers or
    periodicals, sports or automotive magazines, fiction novels. classic
    literature or anything else with a relatively richer vocabulary that
    you enjoy reading. Just reading will not help you prepare, however.
    The point is that anytime you come across a word that you have not
    seen before or do not remember, look it up right there and then in
    the dictionary and enter it on a flash card along with the usage. At
    the end of the day, force yourself to write a paragraph in which you
    use every new word that you came across today. This turned out to
    be very useful for me.
    (d) Practice Makes Perfect: For certain questions like Reading Comprehension
    exercises, all of the above will certainly help you but you
    must keep practicing. You know what else helps with RCs? General
    Reading !! If you are able to read, say, today’s editorial and understand
    the premise behind and also the arguments the author makes
    to support or disprove that premise, you will have no problems with
    these kind of questions.

    12. How do I decide on the list of universities to which I have to
    send the GRE scores at the end of the test ?

    Do not, by any means, consider this as a casual exercise. Ideally, you
    should have already decided on your list of universities before you take
    the GRE and so you can choose 4 from that list. However, we know that
    since GRE scores are a big factor in selecting the universities, most people
    do not have such a list. The straightforward solution is to have multiple
    lists. Make 3 lists of universities - one that you really want to apply to
    provided you get a great GRE score, one that you will apply to if you get
    average scores and the last fall back list which you use only if you screw
    up the test very badly. The US News and PhDs.org rankings explained
    above should be instrumental in helping you create these 3 lists. Doing it
    this way means extra work but it also means that you use test fees more
    efficiently by applying to the right universities.

    13. I did not do as well on the GRE I had expected. Should I retake
    the test or apply with my current scores ?

    This is a tricky question. Assuming you can afford to retake the test
    and the dates are available, there are a couple of other criteria that you
    should keep in mind when making this decision:
    (a) Do you have enough time ?
    If the first time you took your GRE was already kind of cutting it
    close (late October or so), you will have little time to do any more
    substantial preparation.
    (b) Will it help ?
    If the reason your first test did not go so well was because of poor
    time management or factors other than lack of preparation, retaking
    the test might make more sense. However, you should take steps to
    ensure that the same factors do not appear the second time you take
    the test. So, if the cause was, say, lack of time management then you
    should do more practice with actual timed tests to make sure that
    you figure out how to best manage those precious minutes. If it was
    silly mathematical mistakes, practicing will help there as well.

    14. If I decide to take the test again, which scores will be reported ?
    The official ETS policy [11] is to report all the scores that you have obtained in the past 5 years. Not the best of the bunch and certainly not
    the average. Of course, the university you are applying to might have its
    own policy on how to normalize scores for students who have taken the
    test more than once and these policies are not known. If I had to guess, I
    would say that they would consider the latest scores as the official ones.

    16. If you want to get admission in US Institutes during August/September 2006 (Fall) Session then you must give GRE within end September 2005.
    All applications in most Universities for August/September (Fall) 2006 ends by mid December 2005 & some by mid Jan 2006.
    If you are planning for January 2007 (Spring) Session then you can give GRE in by April/May 2006 & apply the Institutes by August 2006.
    Try to target Fall (August/September) Session as many institutes prefer to take more international students in this time. Almost all institutes take international students in both the sessions

    This has 5000 words n covers almost full Barron's
    This is very good for final revision may be a 2-3 days before the exam apart from the long term practice.That is what I did.It has one very good
    feature which allows u to mark the difficult words n use them for future reference.

    117. WordLists from ORKUT postsThese are the download links for word lists from various orkut posts especially those from spetember/october words.

    helpful for final revision.
