Has anyone taken the GREs recently?

[gnargle2988]

I am taking the GREs on Thursday and I have a few questions.

I know the schools I am applying to and I know I need to send them my scores. Do I do this while at the testing center? Is there a fee involved with this? Is there a way to look up the schools or do I need to know the school codes? I have all the codes on a sheet of paper, will I be able to have access to this at some point (I would assume not during the test, but perhaps before or after)?

Thanks!

Recently? No.
This century? Not really.
Let's just move on to your question, shall we?


If I remember correctly, you could indicate which schools you wanted to send your scores to when you initially signed up for the exam. I remember getting my scores, and on the sheet it listed the schools that had received my scores. But there was also a return sheet you could send in (that came with the scores) to request that your information was sent to additional schools. For a fee, of course.

Anyway, good luck! Get s good nights sleep, eat a good breakfast, and all that stuff. I hope you do great!

Good luckMy daughter is in her senior year of college and already has much anxiety over the thought of having to do this.

YES! I just took it in August. You can select 5 schools to send your scores too for no cost. You only need to know the names of the schools(and I think the location). You do not need the codes and if you had them you would not be able to have them with you as you have to empty your pockets and all belongings before you take it.Hope this helps and good luck on the test!

Thank you! That is exactly what I needed to know! Do you remember how long it took to find out your writing scores?
