GRE Course Overview - Graduate Record Examinations.

The GRE is the standard admission test for master's and doctoral programmes in the USA, Canada, and increasingly Europe and Singapore. The shortened GRE (since September 2023) takes under two hours and tests Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, and one Analytical Writing task.

Scores range from 130-170 per section (260-340 total) plus a 0-6 writing score. Top engineering programmes typically want Quant 165+, while business schools look at the full profile. Our GRE coaching rebuilds quant fundamentals from first principles, builds a high-yield vocabulary system, and drills the exact question formats the GRE uses.

Syllabus

What we train, section by section.

Verbal Reasoning (130-170)

  • Reading comprehension: inference, assumption, strengthen/weaken reasoning
  • Text completion: single, double, and triple blanks with vocabulary-in-context
  • Sentence equivalence: two-answer vocabulary selection
  • High-yield GRE word lists with root-based and context-based retention systems
  • Argument passage deconstruction techniques

Quantitative Reasoning (130-170)

  • Arithmetic: percentages, ratios, number properties, exponents
  • Algebra: equations, inequalities, functions, word problems
  • Geometry: circles, triangles, coordinate geometry, 3D figures
  • Data interpretation and quantitative comparison strategies
  • Calculator-free shortcuts and estimation techniques

Analytical Writing (0-6)

  • Analyse an Issue: position essays with structured argumentation
  • Thesis frameworks, evidence selection, and concession technique
  • Timed essay practice with rubric-based evaluation

Strategy & Simulation

  • Section-adaptive logic: how performance on section one sets section two difficulty
  • Error logs and accuracy-vs-speed analytics
  • Full-length PowerPrep-style adaptive mocks
  • Score-target planning mapped to your target universities
