CHARTING AND ANALYZING
YOUR TEST RESULTS
Use the charts on the following pages to carefully analyze your results and spot
your strengths and weaknesses. You should also complete the entire process of an-
alyzing problems in each subject area for the practice test. You can then reexam-
ine these for trends in types of errors (repeated errors) or poor results in specific
subject areas. This reexamination and analysis is of tremendous importance in
helping you maximize your score.
Be sure to also carefully read the answers and explanations that follow
these charts.
Verbal Section
The first step in analyzing your results is charting your answers.
On the following chart, draw a small square around the questions you answered
correctly and a small circle around the ones you missed. As you follow the path of
your questions, be sure to mark the right/wrong box to the left of each question.
(You may wish to use a highlighter to graphically follow your path.)

Part II: Full-Length GRE CBT Practice Test

Now that you’ve completed charting your path, tally your responses and review
and analyze the results with the following charts.
Average Level Correct
Although the GRE CBT uses very precise measures to calculate your score, the
following calculations will give you a very general approximation of the average
level of question that you got right.
Note: Count all Reading Comprehension questions as level 3 questions.
Trying to finish all 30 questions is important, and the following score chart as-
sumes that you’ve done so.
