In addition to the General Test, there are also eight GRE Subject Tests. They test knowledge in the specific areas of Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology; Biology; Chemistry; Computer Science; Literature in English; Mathematics; Physics; and Psychology. The duration of the exams are 170 minutes.
Earlier, subject tests were also offered in the areas of Economics, Revised Education, Engineering, Geology, History, Music, Political Science, and Sociology. But in April 1998, the Revised Education and Political Science exams were discontinued and in April 2000, the History and Sociology exams were discontinued. The other four were discontinued in April 2001.
The GRE Subject Tests can help the candidates to be noticeable from other applicants by laying emphasis on their knowledge and skill level in a specific area.
