Plan to take the GRE General Test between May and September 2026 for a September 2027 intake in the USA, Ireland, or Canada. This timing ensures your scores are ready well before most application deadlines, which usually fall between December 2026 and February 2027.

The GRE is offered year-round in India, with multiple dates each week. Book your test 45 - 60 days in advance to secure your preferred slot.

If you need the GRE Subject Test, it's only offered in April, September, and October. For 2027, the Subject Test window is April 19 to May 2.

September or January: which intake can you still make?
