Changes to the General GRE Cancelled
The Educational Testing Service (ETS) issued a press release on April 2, 2007
stating that planned changes to the GRE General Test, which were to be
implemented over the summer, have been cancelled. According to the GRE
website:
"ETS is canceling the revised GRE General Test because, on balance, officials
believe the potential risk to testing access outweighed the benefits of
immediately moving to the new format. The decision to cancel the launch
was made with the best interests of test takers and score users in mind.
ETS officials will work with the GRE Board to implement some of the planned
improvements to the General Test in the future. These planned improvements
will be without the access issues associated with changing to an entirely new
test delivered over a new testing network."

Use Our Resources
Meeting with an adviser in Career Services or in your major department is the best way to
start your search for a graduate or professional program. Together you can discuss your
options and develop a plan for completing the application process.
In the Career Services Library you will find books on writing your graduate
admission essay, sample study guides for the GRE, LSAT, GMAT and MCAT, and test

Let Us Help
To help you complete your graduate school application, Career Services is
happy to meet with you individually to answer questions or to critique your
application essay. Each semester we offer a workshop on applying to
graduate school in conjunction with Clark's Dean of Graduate Studies. In
addition, we have partnered with
Interfolio.com an
online letter of reference / credential management service which
allows you to store graduate school recommendations (and other documents such as
your resume/CV, writing samples and transcripts) and have them sent to graduate
programs while you are a student at Clark or later as an alum.
