How does the GRE essay scoring compare to the GMAT's? [#permalink] New post   16 Jul 2018, 08:12
I am studying for the GRE, but have taken the GMAT in the past. How do the essays compare in scoring? Is the GRE more strict or are they about even?

I prepped through Manhattan for the GMAT and learned that you would actually have to try to score low in order to get a low score. Is it the same for the GRE?

Ultimately I'm wondering how much time and priority I should be putting into practicing my essay writing for the GRE. Any insights would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

look at here for reference https://gre.myprepclub.com/forum/greprepcl ... -3426.html

However, for the GRE exam awa is very important. Not so in the main competitor GMAT, in which the section is a bit negletted by the students.

both are quire similar: GMAt essay is about analysing the reasoning behind a given argument while in the 1st GRE essay you have to clearly express your thoughts a topic of general interest and in the second you evaluate a given argument according to specific instructions. For details just go to https://prepadviser.com/gmat-gre-essays-assess/. Personally I am majoring in accounting and had to took GMAT --it wasn't that hard especially since was getting tutoring help from https://cbe.lehigh.edu/academics/graduate/master-accounting-and-information-analysis/http://yourhomeworkhelp.org/do-my-accounting-homework/ but now when I look at GRE essays requirements I think I might struggle with it a little
