First of all start with full form GRE stands for Graduate Record Examinations.
in generally saying this test is entrance test to do M.S. in US. It is just like M. Tech in India. After clearing this test you will be able to do M.S. in US along with scholarships and all the residential expenses will be paid under the scholarship.
in short if you will clear GRE you will be able to get MS degree at your own cost no need of family financial support.

GRE actually stands for Graduate Record Examination

This test is conducted to pursue a Masters in Arts (MA) or Science (MS) .
If you are willing to study in abroad (United States) and also in other countries you can apply to this exam.


There are two types of tests

. The General Test measures verbal and quantitative ability, and analytical writing skills. Data shows that scores on the GRE General Test consistently predict graduate school students' grades and performance.

. The Subject Test measures the achievement in a particular subject area or extensive background in that discipline.

GRE means GRADUATE RECORD EXAMINATION conducted for admissions into MS(MASTERS IN SCIENCE) AND MA(MASTERS IN ARTS) in United states and some other English spoken countries.It is conducted by ETS(educational testing Service).

Once you clear GRE, then an exam called TOEFL(TEST FOR ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE) is being conducted to test your skill in English.It is must to clear both of them to get admission into the graduate schools abroad.

GRE is a computer based exam and comprises of 3 sections:
verbal
quantitative aptitude
Analytical reasoning

The verbal section assess the skills in reading comprehension, critical reasoning and vocabulary usage.The quantitative section assess basic high school level mathematical knowledge and reasoning while the other comprises of writing an essay.

Once you get admission through GRE then one needs to spend more than 10 lakhs to complete the education . The banks provide the educational loans to serve the purpose.Above all most of the students opt to do part time jobs to earn money in abroad.
