Which is better to take the GRE or GMAT?

If you are good in liberal arts and not good in science, it is recommended to choose the GRE, the math difficulty of GMAT greatly exceeds the GRE; If your logical thinking is not strong, it is not recommended to choose GMAT, the GMAT questions are very winding and require a lot of thinking.

If it is a business major, the GRE and GMAT can theoretically be used, and if it is an engineering or statistics, actuarial science, mathematical finance, these GARE will be more suitable.

If yes, the GRE is basically to memorize 10,000 new words on this basis, and if you don't memorize it, you will never get a good score. On the contrary, the vocabulary of GMAT is similar to that of TOEFL, and as a business test, it mainly tests logic and analytical ability, as well as the ability to solve problems quickly in a short time, if you have good logical and analytical skills and English ability, some people can get a high score in a short period of time, GMAT is indeed a test to measure whether you are suitable for business, and some people have a long review cycle and may not be able to get a high score after taking the test n times.

I am taking the GMAT, so I have a say in what information the GRE reads, and I recommend that all people who take the GMAT go to Chasedream (CD) to see, which has everything you need to kill G I reviewed the GMAT for about 5 months in total, the 1st battle was quite tragic, the 2nd battle was quite successful, and the materials used were og13, manhattan 5th sc, prep07, prep08, xdf's mathematical breakthrough, gwd, Yang Peng's long and difficult sentences, and xdf's word book. Bai Yong's grammar is too old, and it is not recommended to read ......The essay is to study well the seven deadly sins on the CD.

There is not much comparison, the GRE is the equivalent of the Graduate Record Examination in the United States, and the GMAT is a test for business students.

The GRE is a bit easier to do math than the GMAT. Because of the wide applicability of the GRE test, the questions in the mathematics part of the test do not have too obvious subject tendencies, and more attention is paid to examining the candidates' mastery and coping ability of various basic knowledge points of mathematics, and the test is relatively broad. The GMAT is mainly for the major business schools to select talents, so there will be a more obvious tendency in mathematics topics, more biased towards the content of financial economics, some chart data analytical questions are often linked to financial economics, candidates need to spend extra energy to understand the basic knowledge of this area, in order to ensure that they get a good score in the GMAT mathematics part.

Although the GRE and GMAT both test logical thinking skills, the GRE is much more difficult than the GMAT, as follows:

Vocabulary: GMAT has a vocabulary requirement of 8000 10000, which is not very high, and the degree of importance accounts for about 12, and the GRE has high requirements for words, and memorizing words is the key. The vocabulary in the reading is relatively obscure.

In the verbal part of the GRE, the topic that can't be said in a word can't be done, but in GMAT, because there is no class reversal and fill-in-the-blank, the vocabulary will not become a hard flaw.

Reading: Overall, GRE reading is more difficult than GMAT. This is because GRE articles cover a wide range of topics, and obscure vocabulary in the natural sciences can also be a huge barrier to reading, while GMAT focuses mainly on economics.

Exam content. 1: Expiration date.

GRE: You can take the test 5 times a year, with an interval of more than 20 days. Valid for 5 years.

GMAT: You can take the test 5 times a year, with an interval of more than 16 days. Valid for 5 years.

Summary: The designers of the test believe that an adult's logical and critical thinking skills will be at the same level in 5 years.

2: Comparison of question type and time.

GMAT: 1 Analytical Writing, Integrated Reasoning (which can be regarded as a hodgepodge of mathematics and Chinese), Mathematics, Chinese (text reading, short essay logic and sentence correction). The entire exam lasts less than 4 hours.

Summary: As a graduate-level entrance exam, both test logic and critical thinking skills, not just English! GRE math averages 1 75 minutes for a question, and GMAT math averages 2 minutes for a question, but the difficulty of GRE math is much lower than that of GMAT math.

The GRE language section has an average of 1 5 minutes for a question, and the GMAT language section has an average of 1 75 minutes for a question.

Both the GMAT and the GRE are similar, and the GRE is more general and easier to get a high score. Some of the top business schools have an average GRE score of 98%, but the GMAT is only about 90%, which is relatively more difficult. But in terms of score requirements, it has also become a lower GMAT score requirement.

1. Although many business schools can also accept GRE scores, they have great limitations, and business school students should still choose GMAT. Business school majors include MBA, Finance, Accounting, Marketing, Hospitality Management, and many more.

2. Some students who have intersecting majors with liberal arts colleges, such as economics and financial engineering, are recommended to choose the GRE test. Recently, the popular business analysis BA major has also begun to gradually accept the GRE exam.

3. Majors outside the business school are generally GRE-based.

4. GMAT is one of the important criteria for major business schools and many enterprises to measure the performance of students in management graduate programs. For MBAs in particular, the GMAT is a tailor-made entrance test. And in the recruitment process of many large international companies, GMAT scores will also become an important reference standard.

Typically, business schools require students to take the GMAT, liberal arts colleges and engineering colleges require students to take the GRE, and there is also the LSAT for law. However, some majors will be assigned to different faculties and departments according to the arrangements of different schools, resulting in different examination requirements. For example, if the financial engineering major is located in a business school, it usually requires GMAT, and if it is located in an engineering school, it usually requires the GRE – of course, it is possible that both will be accepted by the school.

At present, more and more business schools that accept the GMAT are starting to accept the GRE, but most of the departments that accept the GARE generally do not accept the GMAT.

In terms of difficulty, the GRE has higher requirements for vocabulary and English grammar, while the GMAT is slightly more difficult than the GRE in logic and mathematics. In terms of preparation time, the average student needs at least 2-3 months to prepare for GMAT full-time, while the GRE may take more than 4 months.

Therefore, it is important for international students to understand what major they are and what college they belong to before applying for the exam (focusing on checking the official requirements of the school, or consulting professional institutions), and secondly, it is best to understand both exams, choose a more suitable one, and do not blindly follow the application choices of other students.

GRE vs GMAT, which test is harder? This depends on each person's specific situation, and the following is an analysis of the two types of tests: GRE and GMAT

1. Examination format.

1.Composition: The current writing part of the GMAT only takes the AA question type (refutation**).

That is to say, candidates only need to make objective judgments based on the reasonable validity of the question stem, and do not need to put forward personal subjective attitudes; At present, GRE still consists of two parts of writing: AI and AA, the AA part is the same as GMAT, and AI is the expression of subjective attitudes.

2. Scoring Criteria.

GMAT is graded based on the accuracy rate, the position of the wrong question, and the difficulty factor, and the adaptability is very clear.

The GRE score will depend on the number of questions answered correctly (i.e., the correct rate), no points will be deducted for incorrect answers, and all questions will be weighted the same (i.e., the raw score will not be differentiated according to the difficulty of the questions).

3. Achievements. After the GAMT test, if the candidate chooses to keep the score, he or she will receive an unofficial score report (including the overall score and IR score) except for the writing part, and an official score report including the score of the essay part 7-20 working days after the test.

An unofficial Math & verbal section of the individual subject and overall score will be available immediately after the GRE test, and an official score report including the essay section will be available 10-15 working days after the test.

TOEFL and IELTS are the specific test contents.

The IELTS test is divided into four parts: listening, reading, writing and speaking, and the test time is 2 hours and 45 minutes, while the immigration and study abroad classes are only different in reading and writing, and the same questions are used in the oral test and listening. The full score of each of the four parts of the IELTS test is 9, and the minimum score is 0.

The old TOEFL test had a full score of 677, which was the sum of the scores in the listening, grammar, and reading sections, and the TOEFL essay was scored separately with a maximum score of 6. However, the new TOEFL test has been introduced in the United States since September 2005, in Canada, France, Germany and Italy in October, and in other countries from 2006. The new TOEFL test consists of four sections (30 points per section for a total score of 120 points), the listening section consists of two longer campus conversations and four class presentations, and the reading section consists of three reading passages, each containing 11-13 reading comprehension questions, speaking includes asking students to express their opinions on a topic, in addition, students are required to read and then listen, and then answer verbally according to the questions, and the composition section requires students to complete two passages within an hour (including one listening, reading, and then writing).

Which countries can I go to after taking the TOEFL and IELTS tests?

IELTS is available to any country in the Commonwealth, while TOEFL is available to any country except Australia, but there are many foreign universities that accept both TOEFL and IELTS.

However, TOEFL is an old and popular English entrance test for international students all over the world, especially after the reform, and it still has an unparalleled advantage in testing candidates' comprehensive language ability.
