    I've recently decided to try my luck at grad school. I noticed that I'm required to take a standardized test called the GRE. Looking over sample sections of the math portion I find this to be easy as all hell. Has anyone taken the GRE, how is it?

    I'll be recieving my computer science degree from penn state university in the spring, and i wanted to apply to get my masters of science in information systems at the university of pittsburgh.. focusing on database and web systems.

    Its funny I had no plans my whole college life to enter grad school. Which is why I havent prepaired or heard of these GRE before.
