The Graduate Record Examination is one step toward attending graduate school and earning a master's or doctorate in physics. The test is a wide-ranging multiple choice exam, and that's why it's incredibly important to build a GRE Subject Test in Physics prep study program that includes support from individuals who know the subject matter well. That's where GRE Subject Test in Physics tutoring with a private instructor found for you by Varsity Tutors can come in handy.
A typical GRE Subject Test in Physics test prep curriculum is usually designed to teach groups of individuals about the test format and the kinds of questions they can expect to see, but GRE Subject Test in Physics test preparation with a tutor can be designed to do that, but also help individual students study the information they may struggle with. The exam is a series of multiple questions, and you'll have just under 3 hours to complete the test. That's why it's important to be able to stay focused under pressure. GRE Subject Test in Physics test prep can help you to prepare, so that you can stay focused and calm as you work through 100 different multiple-choice questions. The table below describes the basic information about the test.
| # Questions | Question Format | Scoring Range | Time |
| 100 | Multiple-Choice | 200-990 | 2 hours and 50 minutes |
What you need for GRE Subject Test in Physics test preparation may be different from what other students need, and that's why a flexible GRE Subject Test in Physics course is important. You may not need to spend as much time on Thermodynamic Processes as other students, but if you need more study of Vector Algebra, one-on-one GRE Subject Test in Physics preparation is one way to get that study time.
While GRE Subject Test in Physics classes can be structured and have a specific time frame to stick to, a program with GRE Subject Test in Physics tutors has more flexibility. Your tutor can assess what you have a firm understanding of, and what you may need to work on to gain confidence before you take your exam, and they'll build a GRE Subject Test in Physics test prep program around your exact academic goals. There are a wide range of topics you might see on the GRE physics test, but some of the subjects are listed below.
GRE Subject Test in Physics Topics (non-comprehensive)
- Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalism
- Three-dimensional particle dynamics
- Magnetic and electric fields in matter
- Ideal gases
- Thermodynamic processes
- Solutions of the Schrödinger equation
- Bohr model
- X-rays
- Time dilation
- Fundamental applications of probability and statistics
- Fission and fusion
