GRE Exam 2022: Fees, Registration, Syllabus, Results & Scores

The GRE does not have a minimum age restriction. However, the institute or university to which you're applying is likely to have age requirements.

Therefore, before completing your GRE registration, double-check your selected university's graduate admissions standards.

In terms of qualifications, there are no precise requirements for registering for the GRE. Applicants must, however, have a graduate degree from a recognized university in any field.

It should be mentioned that candidates for MBA, MS, and law programs at the world's finest universities take the GRE. Even though there are no age or educational criteria for the GRE, studies have observed that the mean age of students pursuing their graduate degree is 33. Apart from an acceptable GRE score, these programs may need students to meet several criteria, such as:

• Undergraduate course grades
• Scores on language tests such as the TOEFL and IELTS
• The standard of the project
• Experience in the workplace
• Recommendation letter
• Letter of Intent

Most applicants are worried about the required work experience; however, it is not a mandatory GRE eligibility criterion. GRE preparation is best to start while a student is studying for their undergraduate program or have completed their undergraduate studies.

In the event of any complications, a proper explanation must be submitted to the concerned authorities.
