Among them are the GRE and TOEFL tests, which are different from each other altogether.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most people have confused the GRE being similar to TOEFL as both these tests are standardised tests pertaining to graduate admissions. They are also both offered by Educational Testing Services (ETS) and are used to test an international student\u2019s academic and English language capacity. It is important to identify what differentiates one from the other. In this post, we\u2019ll take you through all the key features to help you understand the difference and significance of both these tests.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><b>Key features of GRE<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is the General GRE test and then there is the Subject GRE test.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>General GRE test<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is meant to give the admissions committee a precise understanding of the applicant\u2019s strengths.
