I suck in the real world but I'd be excited to take the GRE again, just because I'd like to try it and I think I'd do pretty good with just my God-given talents. If only God had given me some self-discipline, too.</p> I’m one of those test-taking type people.

Then we got a random selection of one of those three for the seventh section. The guy next to me got a third logic section and, I kid you not, he wept.</p><br /><br /><p>In my case, I nailed the analytical and the math parts--lot of help that was in applying to PhD programs in literature.</p> Years ago (it could be different now), we had to take seven sections, 2 each of verbal, math, and analytical (logic).

But my little sis, who took the GRE two years ago, scored in the 99th percentile and got into Yale, used it.

As far as the verbal, you have a tremendous grasp of the English language so I’m sure you’ll do better than most!
