The GRE

[Wagamama]

Does anyone know if you can use a calculator for the GRE? I'm taking it tomorrow and need to know!
Thanks!

I don't think you can - and you won't need it anyway. The GRE is 1/3 verbal and the rest is more conceptual (like logic puzzles etc..). You can use scratch paper. Good luck!!

Just wanted to say GOOD LUCK and don't DIS all night tonight!!!

For the paper-based/generals(unless you've had a drastic change of heart, it's just the generals you're taking, right?)--I don't think calculators were necessary or permitted actually. Have you checked their website? Tests MAY have changed-I remember a quantitative part, a verbal part and a kind-of logic section-well, you probably know what to expect.

Again--good luck!

good luck.

i just took it 2 months ago and no, you can't use it, but it REALLY would have helped me on the math section. i am horrible at mental math. i still did ok though.

btw, i'm sure you know, but there aren't logic puzzles on it anymore; it's verbal (harder than the sat), math (easier than the sat) and essays now.
