Re: Awa gre tips
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a standardized test that is an admissions requirement for most graduate schools in the United States. Graduate Record Examination General Test Structure: Three test sections: Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning and Analytical Writing Verbal Reasoning The AWA section of the GRE is made up of two essays – the Argument essay, and the Issue essay. Each essay will be given two independent scores, but the scores are averaged into one score from 0 to 6 AWA Tips: Address the specific directive. Ferret out at least three major flaws in the argument. Drawing an unfair analogy (ignoring relevant dissimilarities between two things when comparing them) False cause (overlooking one or more alternative or contributing explanations for particular facts or events) Generalizing from particulars (relying on a small number of particular cases — too small to reach a reliable general conclusion) Regardless of the specific directive, your essential task is to recognize and address each such problem Think in terms of underlying assumptions Avoid relying on the terminology of formal logic Devote no more than 4-5 sentences to each major point of critique Don't rehash the stated argument A closing, summary paragraph is optional. If you have time to compose one, keep it brief: simply reiterate your main points in a few sentences. |
