GRE Mini Exam vs ETS Exam Help

Hi Everyone, I took my first GRE Mini Exam - and completely flummoxed by my score as I did remarkably poorer than anticipated. How challenging are the GRE Mini Exams in comparison to the ETS Official Exam?

Alternatively, how do you interpret the score on the scale of the GRE to adjust my timeline accordingly so that I can reach 160/160?

Thank you!

The mini exams are probably more tricky, I would do ETS practice tests if you want to get an idea of score, rather than the mini exams

Thank you Ganesh! If they’re deemed to be “challenging” over ETS, how can I use those mini exams on Greg’s site to my advantage to be beneficial in my study process?

Just use them as a tool for learning to manage your time well. So on each test aim to get as many correct as possible, jumping between questions, doing easier ones first and such. If you’re getting questions wrong on these due to time don’t worry too much.

These would be more reflective of the actual exam structure. Try one or two and let me know how you do. Make sure you adjust the timer first if you have accommodations.
