As of 2025, ETS offers three Subject Tests: <a href=\"https:\/\/theentrypass.com\/resources\/faq\/what-level-of-math-is-needed-for-gre\/\">Mathematics<\/a>, Physics, and Psychology. Each exam is paper-based, lasts 2 hours and 50 minutes, and consists entirely of multiple-choice questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mathematics Test contains approximately 66 questions covering calculus (50%), algebra (25%), and additional topics like discrete math, geometry, and probability (25%). The Physics Test includes about 100 questions on classical mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum physics, thermodynamics, and laboratory methods. The Psychology Test features roughly 205 questions spanning biological, cognitive, social, developmental, and clinical psychology, plus measurement and research design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Features of the ETS Subject Test Format<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All GRE Subject Tests are scored on a 200\u2013990 scale, in 10-point increments. Unlike the General Test, they are not adaptive and are administered only three times per year\u2014typically in April, September, and October\u2014at designated test centers worldwide. Registration must be completed well in advance through the official ETS website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ETS designs these exams for students with strong undergraduate preparation in the respective field. They are not substitutes for the GRE General Test; some PhD programs require both. Always verify your target program\u2019s requirements before registering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scores are valid for five years. Unofficial results are not provided on test day; official scores are released online approximately five weeks after the exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because preparation requires deep content review\u2014not just test-taking strategy\u2014ETS recommends using official practice books and past syllabi. Unofficial resources may not reflect current emphasis or question styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The GRE Subject Tests remain relevant primarily for research-intensive PhD programs where domain mastery is critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the most accurate details, always refer to the official ETS GRE Subject Tests
