Can test takers reschedule their test administrations if they need
to?
Rescheduling is allowed, but candidates must pay a US$50 fee if they
reschedule a CBT and/or paper-based administration (see 2007-08
GRE Bulletin Supplement (PDF)).
What about getting a refund?
Candidates who cancel 10 full days prior to the Analytical Writing test date
(not including the day of the test or the day of the request) will receive
a refund equivalent to half of the original test fee (same as General Test).
Candidates who take the computer-based Analytical Writing section and then
cancel the paper-based test 10 full days before the paper-based date will
receive a US$35 refund. Allow six to eight weeks for receipt of the refund after
the test date. (Note that candidates will not receive their Analytical Writing
scores if they cancel their paper-based test.)
How many times can I take the Analytical Writing section?
It depends on whether or not you choose to report your scores or cancel them
at the end of the test session. Only two complete sets of General Test scores
can be reported during the 2007–08 testing year.
If you choose to report your scores at the end of the Analytical Writing
session, you will be registered for the next paper-based test date. After you
have completed the paper-based section of the test, your scores on all three
sections of the General Test will be reported.
If you register to take the Analytical Writing section of the General Test a
second time and choose to report your scores, you must take the paper-based
section of the test on the next paper-based test date in this testing year. If
you decide to take the Analytical Writing section a third time, you cannot take
a paper-based test because there are only two paper-based test dates, and your
test fee will be forfeited.
If you choose to cancel your Analytical Writing scores at the end of a test
session, your registration for the paper-based test date will be canceled as
well and your test fee will be forfeited. You may then register and pay to take
the GRE® General Test again.
You may take the Analytical Writing section once per calendar month up
to five times in any 12 month-period. This applies even if you canceled your
scores on a test taken previously.
