We're glad you asked. The GRE General Test is available as either a paper-based test (PBT) or a computer-based test (CBT). You can only take the PBT in areas where CBT is not available. Note that the PBT is offered only three times per year, compared with more than fifty test administrations for the CBT. And, while both tests cost $205, the PBT is only offered at centers where approval has been given by Pearson VUE and ETS. If you want to take your test at one of these locations, find out more and register online.
