[00:00:10.720]Our program uses the percentiles
[00:00:13.230]from each section of the GRE instead
[00:00:15.902]of the actual raw data scores.
[00:00:17.780]We will use the percentile from the verbal,
[00:00:19.797]from the quantitative, and the analytical section
[00:00:22.725]when we're reviewing your application.
[00:00:25.580]But those GRE scores are also used
[00:00:28.580]and along with all the letters of recommendation,
[00:00:30.850]your personal statement, and everything else
[00:00:33.010]that goes along with your application.
[00:00:34.824](soft electronic music)
[00:00:40.200]Really, that's a personal decision,
[00:00:42.060]but we certainly wouldn't suggest going in
[00:00:44.190]and taking it cold.
[00:00:45.700]Most students report that they study
[00:00:47.140]anywhere from a month to probably six months
[00:00:49.590]in advance for the exam.
[00:00:51.106](soft electronic music)
[00:00:56.600]You can go ahead and check out
[00:00:58.550]the ETS.org website for online resources.
[00:01:03.670]You also can find online practice tests,
[00:01:07.660]and practice tests are a very good way
[00:01:08.905]to prepare for the GRE.
[00:01:11.640]You also could check out prep books
[00:01:14.510]from the library, purchase your own set
[00:01:17.130]of preparation materials.
[00:01:19.620]There are a lot of resources available.
[00:01:21.888](soft electronic music)
[00:01:27.960]Unless you feel like you did awesome on the first round,
[00:01:32.040]you should plan on taking it twice.
[00:01:35.140]You might gain even a point or two
[00:01:37.800]and that could mean the difference between acceptance or not
[00:01:40.900]or possibly receiving funding or not,
[00:01:43.820]so plan on taking it twice.
