GRE Preparation Course
01:090:180, 3 credits
Course Description
The course is open to all Rutgers University students in the spring semester and summer session I.
The GRE is a standardized test used by almost all Graduate and Professional schools in America to assess applicants to their programs. ODASIS aims to equip more Rutgers University students to study effectively for the course through a series of lectures, practice tests, discussion groups, and regular assignments. The course will focus on problem based learning in the topics of Verbal Reasoning, Analytical Writing, and Quantitative Reasoning. Students enrolled in the course will receive 3 college credits, and will be assessed on the basis of attendance, weekly assignments, class participation, and discussion group initiatives.
For the Spring 2013 semester, the course will run starting January 26, 2013 through April 27, 2013 from 9am-5pm. Additionally, there will also be Friday sessions from 4pm to 8pm as needed. Furthermore, on the basis of students’ course schedules, a few discussion group sessions will be scheduled to foster an academic community where students can help each other by taking practicing exams and presenting challenging problems/passages to each other. Classes will not be held from March 16, 2013 to March 23, 2013 as those dates fall within the Rutgers University Spring Break.
