Congratulations on your
decision to attend Grad School! The Sherwood Test Prep GRE Course will
help you
with one of the most important aspects of your application
process, and will prepare you to do your very
best. Over the last 7
years we have helped thousands of GRE students increase their test
scores.
Our GRE course is designed as a 18 hour, 6 week class, meeting 3 hours
once per week. Our courses are conveniently held on Sundays from
12 noon to 3pm. On your first day of class you will be
provided with all of the materials necessary to prepare for the Graduate
Record Examination. Our course start dates and times are the same
throughout the nation. Our next class begins Sunday, April 25th. New Classes are offered
about every six weeks and everything is included with the course. This is a comprehensive course
that demands your effort and excellence.
Note: The GRE is
undergoing gradual revisions. Starting with tests administered in November 2007, exams have included
one new math question, one new verbal question, or no new questions at
all. The GRE has included reformatted
reading passages within the reading comp questions since January 2009. Please
click here to learn more about these changes.
Sherwood Test Prep was one of
the few Test Preparation Companies that were invited by the Educational
Testing Service (The GRE's Test Maker) to a comprehensive workshop on GRE Changes
at their headquarters in Princeton, NJ. Our research and development team has first hand
knowledge about the test changes from the testmakers. You can
trust Sherwood Test Prep to prepare you for any changes that might occur
on the GRE exam.
