Is there a correlation between GRE Score and IQ?
No, there is no equivalence between GRE score and IQ. GRE tests are assessments of learned lessons and skills. On the other hand, implicit cognitive abilities are being tested by IQ tests. GRE examines the level of mastery in terms of reading, problem-solving, and writing skills. IQ tests measure the intellectual abilities and potential of a person. GRE Test and IQ Test have different purpose, content and scoring system.
