The GRE is a Section Adaptive Test such that, a good performance on the first section will lead to a second section with questions of higher difficulty level and therefore higher score per question, thereby significantly improving the chances of scoring very well on the test.
The total scaled score for the Quantitative Reasoning Section varies from 130 to 170. There is a similar scaled score range for Verbal Reasoning Section. The score is determined by a test taker’s performance over two sections each of Quantitative Reasoning and Verbal Reasoning, totalling to 40 questions each (2 sections of 20 questions each).
But each test taker gets five sections instead of four, which means, either the Quantitative Reasoning or the Verbal Reasoning Section appears three times instead of two. The additional section resembles the other sections, but is an undisclosed, un-scored section, colloquially called a dummy section.
