Three scores are reported on the GRE® revised General Test:

• a Verbal Reasoning score reported on a 130 – 170 score scale, in 1-point increments
• a Quantitative Reasoning score reported on a 130 – 170 score scale, in 1-point increments
• an Analytical Writing score reported on a 0 – 6 score scale, in half-point increments

Any section in which you answer no questions at all will be reported as a No Score (NS).

For the Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning, the reported scores are based on the number of correct responses to all the questions included in the operational sections of the measure.

For Verbal and Quantitative Reasoning:

The Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning measures are section-level adaptive. This means the computer selects the second section based on your performance on the first section. Within each section, all questions contribute equally to the final score. For each of the two measures, a raw score is computed. The raw score is the number of questions you answered correctly.

For Analytical Writing Section:

For the Analytical Writing section, each essay receives a score from two trained readers, using a six-point holistic scale. The final scores on the two essays are averaged and rounded to the nearest half-point interval on the 0–6 score scale. A single score is reported for the Analytical Writing measure.

The primary emphasis in scoring the Analytical Writing section is on your critical thinking and analytical writing skills rather than on grammar and mechanics.
