Dr. Guillette-
Are graduate school exams, GRE or GMAT required for all graduate schools?
I have seen some schools advertising that no exam is required. Are graduate degrees from a no exam school worth less than a degree from a school that requires an entrance exam?
How do I evaluate a grad school program when I am comparing schools?

Dr. Guillette,
I am thinking of attending grad school and as I research schools, I see that some require an entrance exam, the GRE or GMAT and others do not. Is a grad program that does not require and entrance exam have less prestige or credibility? How do I know what scores I would need to be admitted? Are exam schools better than non-exam schools?

Hello JAZMAC – Thank you for your question regarding the GRE or GMAT tests for graduate school admission. Many colleges and universities require a GRE or GMAT as one of their admission criteria but there are many other colleges and universities that do not. I believe that there is no difference between colleges and universities based on whether or not they require a GRE or GMAT score. Many colleges and universities choose to replace the GRE or GMAT requirement with a writing sample or an interview. When doing your research for graduate schools please check out admission requirements and that is where you will find the minimum score they rwequire for a GRE or GMAT score.
Best regards,
Dr. Guillette

Hello Alissa -
Here at Bridgewater State College we do not have an MA degree in Linguistics. But I suggest you look at Brandeis University or Boston University plus do a search at gradschools.com
Best regards,
