GRE/ Graduate Examination Record :  As a side note the GRE is like the SAT/ACT of grad school.  So before I leave the country  (to study in Paris again) on the 28th, I started to read over my GRE book.  Who do you take the GRE? Well,  I have to jump through some hoops because I need to apply for an alternative format of the exam (i.e. Large print/ 18 point print on MS word).  I submitted all required documents the Educational Testing Services (ETS).  Hopefully I will get a (good) answer saying that all my accommodations are approved and that I can take it in August. (Fingers crossed).  As of now, I’m just getting a general feel for the test and when I return from taking classes this summer I’ll go more in depth and do practice tests.  This is what I’ve done so far.
