Changes Coming for GRE

Posted by: Phil Mintz on May 23

Scott Jaschik of Inside Higher Education reports that the Educational Testing Service is adding a new non-cognitive portion to the Graduate Record Exam, starting in July 2009. The section will be known as the Personal Potential Index, or PPI.

Jaschik notes:

ETS officials acknowledge that the PPI is part of their pitch to attract more business schools to the GRE — a major goal of ETS, and one on which it appears to be making some headway, since it lost the contract for the Graduate Management Admission Test.
