    Episode 69: Japan’s method of reducing error (the point-and-call system)

    The railroad system in Japan is one of the most efficient and complex in the world. It’s also one of the safest, and major accidents -- let alone delays -- are almost non-existent. In today’s episode, Orion shares one of Japan Railway’s secrets for ensuring close attention to detail under demanding time tables: the point-and-call system. The rest of the episode is devoted to discussing the implications of this system for reducing carelessness on the GRE.

    Episode 68: What are the GRE subject tests? (and why to take them)

    Since the GRE general test is the most commonly required standardized test for a graduate school application, many people aren’t even aware that the GRE subject tests exist. In today’s episode, we discuss what these tests are, how they differ from the GRE general test, and why anyone in their right mind might sit for them -- especially if they are not a required component of a grad school application.

    Episode 67: Can artists do math? (lack of knowledge can be an asset)

    Davis and Orion respond to another question from a listener in today’s episode of GRE Bites. The request is from a student with an arts background who is concerned about his ability to score highly on the quantitative section of the test. Apparently, math has never come easy for him, and he is worried that this time around won’t be any different. Is it possible for folks who even struggle with the fundamentals of math to score highly on the GRE?

    Episode 66: Is there hope for low-scorers? (getting a 320 if you’re not a high-performer)

    In today’s episode, Orion and Davis respond to an email from a listener who is concerned as to whether her GRE goals are attainable, despite not being a ”high-performer.” While some folks tend to have an easier time of things than others, Orion reassures her that achieving a 160 on each section of the test is within the capabilities of the vast majority of students. In fact, awareness of one’s own relative deficits can be an asset, as it’s not possible to pour into a full cup.
