I have completed my graduation in Mechanical Engineering and further I want to pursue MS. What are some good options for a GRE score of 300?

Pakshal Ghiya 9th Dec, 2020

Hello Aspirant,

GRE is just a small part of your profile .US universities look at your over all profile.

But yes many universities have minimum GRE score required to get an admit.Many universes mention that they consider a GRE score 300 ( I.e., they would consider a minimum of 158 or 160 in quant ) but they will never accept people with a GRE score less than 310 or say 315.

The only to know if you can get an admit in a university is by looking at previous year admits and comparing them with your profile

Join the MS in US stupidsid group on Facebook and look at the last year admits and try getting in touch with them.

All The Best.

Hello,

The GRE General Test is one of the world’s largest assessment programs for graduate admissions and the exam is conducted by Educational Testing Service (ETS).

There are two types of GRE tests, GRE General Test and GRE Subject Test.

Students seeking admission to MS courses in different fields in the US and various other countries appear for GRE General Test.

Through this test, a candidate is evaluated on his analytical writing, quantitative ability, and verbal reasoning skills.

The GRE Subject Test evaluates the candidates’ ability on a particular subject like mathematics , English literature , Physics etc.

Generally, this test is required for getting admission to specialized courses.

There is no eligibility criteria for this The graduate record examination (GRE) is a standardized exam used to measure one's aptitude for abstract thinking in the areas of analytical writing, mathematics, and vocabulary.

The GRE is commonly used by many graduate schools in the U.S. and Canada to determine an applicant's eligibility for the program

I suggest you devote between 4 and 12 weeks to GRE preparation to score good.

Take mock tests , practice model papers , etc.

Vocab is still an important part of the GRE Verbal sections. You can absorb many of the words that will show up on the GRE by reading respected publications such as academic journals etc.


Best regards!!

I am doing my 3rd year engineering when should I write GRE and TOEFL exams?

Arpita 7th Nov, 2020
Dear student

In my opinion , for GRE and TOEFL you should start your preparations from now and also shortlist colleges you want to study in. The ideal time for giving the test is during the month of January  after Christmas vacations . Also, in GRE if you are not satisfied  with your  results then you can appear the test once again within a month . And during  January  you will be getting a plenty of leisure time also there will be no study pressure from college. So, before your graduation , you will have a college in your hand. And generally they will ask you to join the college in the first week of September.
