About our Graduate Record Exam Simulator:

The General GRE is a standardized exam that measures analytical writing, verbal, and quantitative skills. A recent GRE score is a required component of an application to most graduate schools in the United States. While the old paper-based GRE is still offered in some select locations, the GRE is most often administered as a Computer Adaptive Test (CAT). CATPrep's GRE simulator assists prospective graduate school applicants in their GRE preparation by offering realistic practice sessions designed to indicate their levels of preparedness and accurately predict their scores on the actual exam.

SIMULATOR FEATURES LIST:

Scoring Engine: The Upstart Raising Simulator includes an accurate scoring engine that truly separates it from any other practice materials available. Our simulator has proven to be an incredibly accurate indicator of student preparedness and is currently used by students and course instructors worldwide as the most accurate score indicator available

Adaptive Questions: Another critical aspect available in our Simulator and nowhere else, is an accurate reproduction of the GRE's question selection algorithm. Other practice exams provide only the number of questions you will be presented on test day, but this could never simulate a real GRE exam! On the real exam, your next question is chosen from a pool of thousands of questions of varying difficulty. The GRE will continue to present you with harder and harder questions until your performance begins to level out. The GRE uses this performance dependent question selection algorithm to narrow in on your final section score! Here again, the Upstart Raising Simulator has provided an accurate recreation. Our GRE Simulator contains over 300 questions of predetermined difficulty and will present them to you according to your current performance level. For high performers, this is especially important, because you need to practice under conditions where you are continually presented with difficult questions. Only under these conditions will you learn to accurately manage your time in a manner conducive to achieving the highest score possible!

Time Management: remaining time is displayed in the top-left hand corner of the Simulator, and just like on the real exam, you may make the timer invisible until there are only 5 minutes remaining on the current section. At that time, the timer will countdown in minutes and seconds, and can not be disabled.

Endurance Test: Just practicing on the Math or Verbal sections separately won't provide the type of preparation you need to score your best. You need to practice through the grueling 3.5 hours of mental focus with only two 5 minute breaks. Our Simulator provides the full GRE experience including the AWA Section and it accurately times the entire exam.

Support for Candidates with Disabilities: The Graduate Management Admission Council makes several accommodations available to test takers with documented disabilities. Our Simulator recreates the actual nonstandard options available to these candidates and allows them to practice under the true conditions they will experience on test day.

Review your results: After your exam is complete you are presented with your score and a chance to review the questions on your exam along with your answers, the correct answers, timing analysis, and an explanation.
