Grad School and the GRE/MAT

[IlovemyAKA]

Do you mean GMAT? That's the one for business programs. I took it. It includes qualitative & quantitative (basically reading comprehension & math) & a writing portion. It wasn't too bad, and you get a practice test with registration. Most schools require a 450 or 500.

The test snuck up on me. I didn't do a SINGLE BIT of studying & made a 510 (what a blessing!), so you should be fine.

Nope, I mean MAT. I'm actually looking into doing a Masters in Education. One school I'm looking into applying (I'm gonna apply to 2), says they accept both GRE and MAT scores.

I know about the GMAT...my b/f is looking to eventually go for his MBA, and he'll need to take that one.

How curious! My ex-boyfriend needed the PRAXIS for entry to his M.Ed. program. The school didn't ask for the GRE or any other tests.

If I were you, I'd go for the GRE. It's a bit like the SAT, whereas MAT is specialized, as tnxbutterfly noted.

LOL I took the praxis I for entry into the teacher education program.

I'm thinking I'm gonna stick with the GRE. My personal deadline is to have my applications to the two schools I'm applying to submitted by January 1st.

I am applying to graduate programs (also M. Ed.) as a backup to medical school, and almost all of mine require the GRE, if anything. I just registered for it a couple days ago....it doesn't look too terrifying.
