You can download your score report when the ETS notifies you that your scores are now available online. From the 13th, it should be available online. It usually takes a day or two to get to the school.When the ETS notifies you of your scores availability online, you will get to see your analytical writing scores there.

Compliment of the season buddies. Please I need some illumination concerning GRE. I plan to give the GRE on January 4th but the priority deadline for one of my target schools is January 15.

My questions are:

Firstly, does GRE produce online examinee report like TOEFL. I plan to upload it for my online application during application in case the official scores from ETS does not arrive the School before January 15th.

Secondly, for those that wrote GRE lately in Lagos approximately after how many days after the test date was the result ready--I mean AWA?

Thank you all for your anticipated responses.

Gbagada bus stop is quite far from there.I will advise you ask the driver/conductor if they can stop for you at UPS.Kindly alight at charly boy bus stop and walk down if they can't.

Of course you can apply to schools in the US. Your GPA is not super fantastic so, my advice would be to write the GRE and do well so that can boost your chances of getting in.

Another mistake you shouldn't make would be to put all your eggs in the basket of ivy league schools. I'm not saying you shouldn't apply to them but have a fail safe plan. Though the last time I checked, schools that were fail safe ain't fail safe as they used to be but at least apply to such schools.

You may also start applying early as deadline for Fall are closer than you think.

Most importantly, have good GRE scores. Target like 315 and above.

Good luck!

Okay seriously. Yes you can download your score report and attach it as a PDF. I'm not sure if it's just me but these reports where you are made to carry a placard like you are taking a mugshot.

AWA should be out before your deadline.

All the best.

hey guyz, for the benefit of those considering wether to write the gre paper based or IBT, i've written both and the basic differences are as follows:
1) with the paper based theres no extra experimental section, just 2 quant and 2 verbal sections of 25 questions each.
2) with the ibt, if you do well on one section the next is very hard, but with paper the questions are of medium difficulty with just a few hard ones.
so the major pros of IBT are that you get to see ur scores immediately and also its easier to format ur essays as opposed to using eraser to correct mistakes, I wrote the IBT about two years ago and scored poorly , so I decided to try the paper test this year though my scores are not yet out, im confident I did very well cos the two sections were easy, and i was more comfortable and faster working on paper as opposed to staring at a computer screen. i'll return to to give my testimony when my scores are out. I wish us all success.
took the gre got v-153 q-152. 305 overall . im not happy with the score so imma take it again someday(maybe next year or something). but this time im thinking i should go for the paper based since i did not enjoy the extra quant section cause i get bored quickly and loose focus. anddd the fact that im used to parer exams not computer based exams where you stare at it for 3+ hours .....extremely uncomfortable.
so anyway i was just wodering what other paper based gre takers thought.

As funny as it may sound, you are absolutely right. It's not been easy reading during festive season. I've had to skip travelling to see my parents cos I would be distracted.

Thank you for your response. It is great.

I am not an expert but from what I have understood, if you prepare well, the computer based test will favour you. The paper based test questions are cast in stone and therefore not section adaptive unlike the computer based test. Please take the computer based test. All you need to do is to do a lot of practice tests i.e. Powerprep online,Manhattan,Kaplan etc. You will get used to the timing and format and you will score better.

Hello folks....I'm a little bit confused. It has been said here times without number that Princeton review is good for verbal and quant strategies.....
I have 2 textbooks of Princeton review (cracking the GRE and 1,014 practice questions).
which one is applicable to verbal? and
which one is applicable to quant strategies?
Thanks
