You will spend valuable time just figuring out what the question is asking. Then, in many cases, you must sort through lots of data to find the information you need, often synthesizing elements from different parts of the data set. You may then have to use a series of operations to solve the question. Skip these questions fast and come back to them last! These questions come up on every GRE Quantitative section, and they are often deceptively difficult. With answer choices, they might be easy.
However, these questions require you to solve the question without any answer choices, so you must get the answer exactly correct, and there is almost no chance of guessing correctly.
Often, one of these comes up in the last five questions, but you might be able to solve two multiple choice questions in that same time. Unless you know exactly how to solve these questions, SKIP them and come back to them if time allows. In most cases, Reading Comprehension questions take longer than vocabulary questions, even Text Completion questions with three blanks, so I always skip the reading questions and do them last.
Three-blank text completion questions the ones where you must pick three correct words to get credit are often difficult due to the convoluted sentences and obscure vocabulary used.
Consider skipping these questions and doing them last if you cannot quickly tell what you are looking for in each blank or if you are unfamiliar with more than two of the answer choices. Use your gift early and often. The most important thing is getting the maximum total number correct, and this strategy will guarantee that you get every question correct that you know how to solve. The GRE clocks in at 3 hours, 45 minutes.
The GRE consists of six sections with a 10 minute break after the third section. The first section of the test collects all of your biographical information. If you fill this out, you will start getting mail from programs that have bought your name from ETS. The scored part of the GRE begins with two back-to-back essays. You have 30 minutes for each.

You'll complete five multiple-choice sections, but only four will count. Keep in mind that the math, verbal, and experimental sections may appear in any order. At the end of the exam, you will know, based on the number of math or verbal sections, if the experimental section was math or verbal, but you will not know which section will not count toward your score. You are given 1 minute between sections except for the second multiple-choice section, when you get a minute break.
When tackling practice tests during your test preparation, be sure to mimic the real GRE and give yourself these timed breaks just like the real thing. At the end of the test, you may also have an unscored research section that will be used only to help develop and test questions for the GRE. If you want to skip it, you have the option of skipping it. Before you see your GRE scores , you will be given the opportunity to cancel.
