Millicent Musyoka; Raymond Doe – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2024
Graduate Records Examinations (GRE) remain an important criterion for admission to the graduate program. This study explored the predictive role of the GRE for college success among deaf students because most deaf and hard-of-hearing students experience lifelong difficulties in English language and literacy because of their different language…

Amy A. Franckowiak – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this scholarly project was to determine if GRE scores (verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and analytical writing) predict first-time pass rate on the NCE. This project also investigated the correlation between first-time pass rate on the NCE and the individual covariates of age at program matriculation, sex, race,…

Mendoza-Sanchez, Itza; deGruyter, Justine N.; Savage, Nowlan T.; Polymenis, Michael – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2022
There is interest in admission criteria that predict future success in biomedical graduate school programs, but identifying predictors of PhD attainment is inherently complex. In particular, high noncompletion rates of PhD programs have long been recognized as a major crisis. Here, we present a quantitative analysis of the PhD students enrolled in…

Verostek, Mike; Miller, Casey W.; Zwickl, Benjamin – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
An analysis of 1955 physics graduate students from 19 Ph.D. programs shows that undergraduate grade point average predicts graduate grades and Ph.D. completion more effectively than GRE scores. Students' undergraduate GPA (UGPA) and GRE Physics (GRE-P) scores are small but statistically significant predictors of graduate course grades, while GRE…

Klieger, David M.; Bridgeman, Brent; Tannenbaum, Richard J.; Cline, Frederick A.; Olivera-Aguilar, Margarita – ETS Research Report Series, 2018
Educational Testing Service (ETS), working with 21 U.S. law schools, evaluated the predictive validity of the GRE® General Test using a sample of 1,587 current and graduated law students. Results indicated that the GRE is a strong, generalizably valid predictor of first-year law school grades and that it provides useful information even when…

Young, John W.; Klieger, David; Bochenek, Jennifer; Li, Chen; Cline, Fred – ETS Research Report Series, 2014
Scores from the "GRE"® revised General Test provide important information regarding the verbal and quantitative reasoning abilities and analytical writing skills of applicants to graduate programs. The validity and utility of these scores depend upon the degree to which the scores predict success in graduate and business school in…

Pacheco, Wendy I.; Noel, Richard J., Jr.; Porter, James T.; Appleyard, Caroline B. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2015
The use and validity of the Graduate Record Examination General Test (GRE) to predict the success of graduate school applicants is heavily debated, especially for its possible impact on the selection of underrepresented minorities into science, technology, engineering, and math fields. To better identify candidates who would succeed in our program…

Mulvenon, Sean W.; Wang, Victor C. X. – International Journal of Adult Vocational Education and Technology, 2015
The goal of an educational system or degree program is to "educate" students. This immediately raises the question of what does it mean to "educate" students. All academic institutions, degree programs and content areas are typically expected to answer this question and establish appropriate academic expectations both within…

Rockinson-Szapkiw, Amanda J.; Bray, Oliver R., Jr.; Spaulding, Lucinda S. – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2014
This study examines how GRE scores can be used to better understand Education doctoral candidates' methodology choices for the dissertation as well as their persistence behaviors. Candidates' of one online doctoral education program were examined. Results of a MANOVA suggested that there is no difference in GRE scores based on doctoral candidates'…

Collins, Shawn – ProQuest LLC, 2012
Problem: The purpose of this cross-sectional correlational study was to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and personal and academic factors of nurse anesthesia students at three points in a program: matriculation, at one year of study, and in the last semester of study and the relationship of these to clinical scores and…

Schmidt, E. A.; Homeyer, Linda E.; Walker, John L. – Counselor Education and Supervision, 2009
This study examined the relationship between 403 counseling graduate students' scores on the Counselor Preparation Comprehensive Examination (CPCE; Center for Credentialing and Education, n.d.) and 3 admissions requirements used as predictor variables: undergraduate grade point average (UGPA), Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) General Test Verbal…

Kordinak, S. Thomas; Kercher, Melanie; Harman, Marsha J.; Bruce, A. Jerry – Journal on Educational Psychology, 2009
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Tests and GRE advanced Psychology (PSYGRE) Test were correlated with several measures of success in our graduate program at Sam Houston State University including some specific courses. Significant correlations were obtained for several of these measures, but the PSYGRE provided incremental validity…

Song, Moohoun; Orazem, Peter F.; Wohlgemuth, Darin – Economics of Education Review, 2008
Students in majors with higher average quantitative graduate records exam (GRE) scores are less likely to attend graduate school whereas students in majors with higher average verbal GRE scores are more likely to attend graduate school. This sorting effect means that students whose cognitive skills are associated with lower earnings at the…
