Question
I need to take the GRE's and I want to go into programs with ABA and Psychology. Do I need to take two kids of GRE'S or just general GRE'S? And if I need a tutor, how would I go about getting one?

Answer
Hi.

There is the General GRE and there are subject tests.  Subject tests are only in certain specific areas.  I believe there is a psych subject test.

Whether you need the subject test depends on the department you are applying to.  They will either require it or not.  Almost all grad programs do require the General GRE.

To study for the subject test, you mostly need to review subject matter.  You can get an official review book from ETS, the people who give the test. You will probably also want to buy a commercial book, as it may give you a different perspective.

For the General GRE I will refer you to my website, where there is a lot of free planning info on the whole admission process, as well as on the GRE and how to prepare.
