I think this really depends on what you’re going to grad school for. If you are going into a technical or science-related field, then it is a good idea to take the subject test. Humanities fields tend to judge admissions more on your essay, your past accomplishments and grades, and your recommendations.

Yes. GRE is required for admission to most graduate schools (except business school, medical school and law school). Depending on how well you are at standardized tests, you may want to attend a GRE Prep course taught by Kaplan or Princeton Review. If you are a good self learner, you can just buy one of those prep books at the book store.

If your GPA and regular GRE score and the rest of your record are good, then you really don’t need to. If your application’s a little weak, you probably should if you think there’s a decent chance you can do well. However, it’s better to have no score than a bad score.

It’s just like the SAT or ACT you frequently took to get into university. It has common capabilities, however furthermore has special area places, like physics, if that’s correct for you. Graduate dossier examination ( i believe)
