Is it safe to take the GRE test at home??

THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM:- ETS has been canceling many GRE scores which are taken from the home. The worst part is that they DO NOT mention the exact reason for the said cancellation. Most of the time, it could be because of intended malpractice during the test. But there could be cases, where your test scores might be canceled due to technical faults (like VPN fault, alternating tabs by mistake, faulty cache, and so on). That being said, you are investing a huge amount of time and money in your abroad education, if your GRE scores get canceled after you have completed your entire application process(which itself costs a lumpsum amount), and even worse, if they are canceled after you have secured your admits and paid the deposit, this could become your worst nightmare. So, choose wisely. Think about the pros and cons. Decide if taking a home-based GRE is absolutely necessary for you. Having said that, What are the factors that determine your choice of taking the test at home or waiting for centers to become operational? There are many questions that need to be considered before opting for a home-based GRE. Q1: Do you have computers, connectivity, and an ambiance that meet GRE home requirement? The requirement is not uncommon. Computing Requirement: Any good laptop that runs Windows 7 or 8 or 10 should be sufficient. Conversely, if you have a desktop PC, you should have access to an external microphone, webcam, and a speaker. WFH with office laptops: If you have taken your work laptop home for WFH, visit GRE’s website and check whether you are able to install the ETS browser. In many companies, the sysadmin would have disabled the ability to install any external software on the official laptops. Check and verify that you will be able to use the software on your machine before registering for the GRE. Connectivity Requirement: Any decent broadband connection should do the job. If you have a 2 MBPS plus broadband connectivity that is usually stable, it should tick the box as far as connectivity goes. However, if you live in a place where wired broadband is not available and you depend on mobile Internet, I will recommend that you find an alternative. It could be getting wifi access from a neighbor who has wired broadband for the duration of the test. If such an alternative is not possible because you have moved back to your hometown (during lock down) where decent broadband is not available, wait for the test centers to become operational. Or, at least, wait till you get back to your college or workplace where connectivity is better. Ambiance: Do you have a reasonably silent room that is clutter-free with a desk and chair to take a 4-hour exam? If so, the home-based testing will work for you. On the other hand, if you live in a shared paying guest accommodation, you should probably not think about taking the GRE at-home version. If you live in a comfortable house with an independent room for yourself, I think you should complete your GRE at home before the test centers open up and the option to take the GRE at home ceases to exist. You are unlikely to get any better ambiance in any test center that matches your own independent room. Q2. Are there any game-changing differences between the two formats? Yes, there are a few differences in the test administration process based on which format you choose. However, the fact is that there is not a single game-changing difference in the way GRE has opted to offer the GRE at home. You still have to complete two sections each of Analytical writing, verbal, and quantitative reasoning in the home-based version. You get to do all calculations either on a transparent paper and a marker or on a whiteboard with a marker (you need not choose the whiteboard option). So, to that extent the test experience is almost the same as you will find in a center - only made better without any potential annoyance from another test taker next to you. You have the option to take a retest should the first attempt result in a lower score. So, I do not see any point in not opting for the GRE at home if you checked the boxes about the system and ambiance requirement. That's it, folks! Hope this article helped you. All the very best for your application process! #studyabroad #greathome #greprepare #masters #ms #USA #Canada #universityselection #applicationprocess #community_mentor #CM #CommunityMentor #studyguide

Spring or Fall 23 - Which is better?

Fall vs Spring has always been a debate for international students looking to pursue their higher studies. It’s the first constraint to be fixed for going to higher studies abroad. It really matters a lot in which intake we are joining. So, We have decided to provide a better understanding for every student by dealing with this question in depth. But before that, let’s understand what the Spring and the Fall semesters are: Every year, most international universities offer two entrance intakes for all classes and courses. The Fall semester runs from September to December, while the Spring semester runs from January to May. Universities accept students in two separate intakes rather than simply one, for two reasons. First, it is not easy to accommodate too many students in a single semester. Most universities receive thousands of applications every year, so obviously it will be quite a task to admit so many students at a time. Second, there could be various reasons for students not having the option to apply for the Fall season. It may be financial for some, can be health issues and can be for others. So universities accept students who couldn’t apply during the Fall season. Let’s discuss which semester you should apply for and why. 1. Universities The first and foremost thing one needs to check is whether the universities that they want to get into are taking the applications for spring intake too or not. This needs to be checked and verified through the university’s official website even before taking GRE and other tests. There are a significant number of colleges that don’t take students for spring semester. 2. Acceptance Rate Most students in India graduate from their bachelors during the first half of the month and directly apply for masters or PhD. Due to this, there has always been a tremendous amount of applications filled out during fall intake. Due to that, the class sizes are much larger for the Fall Intake when compared to the spring, which means you might have a better chance of getting admitted then. 3. Courses Universities often offer a larger selection of courses for Fall Intake candidates, so you'll have more options. It also implies that if you're searching for a unique subject that a small number of people are interested in, there's a good possibility it won't be offered during the Spring term. Some universities might roll out applications for spring intake but for limited courses only, So the candidate needs to confirm that too. 4. Summer Internship Opportunity In the USA, You are required to complete a minimum of 2 semesters of education to be allowed to do your internship. So, If you go for Fall, you can study one semester in Fall, One in Spring and can appear for summer internship whereas If you go for Spring intake, You need to wait for 3 semesters to get into your first internship. 5. Job Opportunities Job fairs and campus recruitment are most common in the second year, which means you'll have finished three semesters if you're in the fall semester and two semesters if you're in the spring semester. Those who have completed three semesters will have an edge over those who have completed two semesters since the extra semester will give you time to strengthen your profile and resume because you will have completed more projects, participated in more events, and so on. These minor bonuses will give you an edge over your classmates from the Spring semester. 6. Assistantships (TA/RA) Since the academic year begins with the Fall semester, students will have greater options to get on-campus employment and internships, particularly for research-based courses. Many professors start their research at the beginning of the academic year and do not hire new assistants in the middle. During the Fall semester, there will undoubtedly be additional possibilities to work as research assistants or teaching assistants. Adding to the above points, students need more time to settle down. If you feel you are not ready to start studies by September, then there is no point in hurrying your applications. One can gain a good experience and settle down financially and can then opt for higher studies. The definitive answer is straightforward: it is totally up to you. It all relies on what you require and your long-term objectives. First and foremost, when applying for a job, be clear about what you want from your college experience, since you are the greatest judge of your own career. It's not a bad idea to apply for any intake season. #masters #ms #spring23 #fall23
