Every year, a huge number of candidates take GRE for higher studies, and GRE score calculation is a complicated process. For GRE General Test, the score of Quantitative Reasoning and Verbal Reasoning contributes towards the overall score of GRE. Both these sections receive a raw score based on the number of questions in these sections. GRE raw score is then converted to scaled score on a scale of 130-170. To understand GRE score calculation process, GRE raw score conversion chart can help a lot.

Check: GRE To GMAT Score Conversion

A trained rater first examines GRE Analytical writing assessment on a six-point scale. Next, the essay is assessed by an e-rater® - it is exclusively designed by ETS. In case, GRE AWA scores given by both human rater and the e-rater are close or similar, the average score of both is given as the final GRE AWA score. If the scores have a huge difference, a second human grader checks the essay.

Check: Good GRE Score
