Important Notes
In the actual test, your scores for the multiple-choice sections will be
determined by the number of questions you answer correctly. Nothing
is subtracted from a score if you answer a question incorrectly.
Therefore, to maximize your scores it is better for you to guess at an
answer than not to respond at all. Work as rapidly as you can without
losing accuracy. Do not spend too much time on questions that are
too difficult for you. Go on to the other questions and come back to
the difficult ones later.
Some or all of the passages in this test have been adapted from
published material to provide the examinee with significant problems
for analysis and evaluation. To make the passages suitable for testing
purposes, the style, content, or point of view of the original may have
been altered. The ideas contained in the passages do not necessarily
represent the opinions of the Graduate Record Examinations Board
or Educational Testing Service.
You may use a calculator in the Quantitative Reasoning sections

only. You will be provided with a basic calculator and cannot use any
other calculator, except as an approved accommodation.
Marking Your Answers
In the actual test, all answers must be marked in the test book.
The following instructions describe how answers must be filled in.
Your answers will be hand-scored, so make sure your marks are

clear and unambiguous. Examples of acceptable and unacceptable
marks will be given with the sample questions.

Question Formats
This practice test may include questions that would not be used in an
actual test administered in an alternate format because they have been
determined to be less suitable for presentation in such formats.
The questions in these sections have several different formats. A brief

description of these formats and instructions for entering your answer
choices are given below.
Multiple-Choice Questions—Select One Answer Choice
These standard multiple-choice questions require you to select just

one answer choice from a list of options. You will receive credit only
if you mark the single correct answer choice and no other.
Example:
What city is the capital of France?
A Rome
B Paris
C London
D Cairo
-4-
Acceptable Marks
A Rome A Rome A Rome

B Paris B Paris B Paris
C London C London C London
D Cairo D Cairo D Cairo

A Rome
B Paris
C London
D Cairo
-5-
Unacceptable Marks


If you change an answer, be sure that all previous marks are erased
completely. Stray marks and incomplete erasures may be read as
intended answers. Blank areas of the test book may be used for
working out answers, but do not work out answers near the answer-
entry areas. Scratch paper will not be provided, except as an approved
accommodation.
-6-
Multiple-Choice Questions—Select One or More Answer Choices
Some of these questions specify how many answer choices you must
select; others require you to select all that apply. In either case, to
receive credit all of the correct answer choices must be marked.
These questions are distinguished by the use of a square box to be
marked to select an answer choice.
Example:
Select all that apply.
Which of the following countries are in Africa?
A China
B Congo
C France
D Kenya

Column Format Questions
This question type presents the answer choices in columns. You must
pick one answer choice from each column. You will receive credit
only if you mark the correct answer choice in each column.
Example:
Complete the following sentence.
(i) _______ is the capital of (ii)_______.
Blank (i) Blank (ii)

A Paris D Canada
B Rome E France
C Cairo F China
-9-
Numeric-Entry Questions
These questions require a number to be entered by circling entries in

a grid. If you are not filling in your own answers, your scribe should
be familiar with these instructions.
1. Your answer may be an integer, a decimal, or a fraction,

and it may be negative.
2. Equivalent forms of the correct answer, such as 2.5 and 2.50,
are all correct. Although fractions do not need to be reduced
to lowest terms, they may need to be reduced to fit in the grid.
3. Enter the exact answer unless the question asks you to round
your answer.
4. If a question asks for a fraction, the grid will have a built-in
division slash (/). Otherwise, the grid will have a decimal point.
5. Start your answer in any column, space permitting. Circle no
more than one entry in any column of the grid. Columns not
needed should be left blank.
6. Write your answer in the boxes at the top of the grid and circle
the corresponding entries. You will receive credit only if your
grid entries are clearly marked, regardless of the number
written in the boxes at the top.

Section 3
Quantitative Reasoning
25 Questions
Directions: For each question, indicate the best answer using

the directions given.
Notes: All numbers used are real numbers.

All figures are assumed to lie in a plane unless otherwise
indicated.
Geometric figures, such as circles, triangles, and
quadrilaterals, are not necessarily drawn to scale. That
is, you should not assume that quantities such as lengths
and angle measures are as they appear in a figure. You
should assume, however, that lines shown as straight are
actually straight, points on a line are in the order shown,
and more generally, all geometric objects are in the
relative positions shown. For questions with geometric
figures, you should base your answers on geometric
reasoning, not on estimating or comparing quantities
from how they are drawn in the geometric figure.
Coordinate systems, such as xy-planes and number lines,
are drawn to scale; therefore, you can read, estimate, or
compare quantities in such figures from how they are
drawn in the coordinate system.
Graphical data presentations, such as bar graphs, circle
graphs, and line graphs, are drawn to scale; therefore,
you can read, estimate, or compare data values from how
they are drawn in the graphical data presentation.

For each of Questions 1–9, compare Quantity A and Quantity B,
using additional information centered above the two quantities if
such information is given. Select one of the following four answer
choices. A symbol that appears more than once in a question has
the same meaning throughout the question.
A Quantity A is greater.
B Quantity B is greater.
C The two quantities are equal.
D The relationship cannot be determined from
the information given.
Quantity A Quantity B
Example 1: (2)(6) 2+6

The correct answer choice for Example 1 is (A). (2)(6), or 12, is
greater than 2 + 6, or 8.
Example 2: PS SR
The correct answer choice is (D). The relationship between PS and
SR cannot be determined from the information given since equal
measures cannot be assumed, even though PS and SR appear to be
equal in the figure.
