Are you struggling to master your writing skills?


Taking the GRE comes with its challenges and one such challenge is to attempt the essay section that is subjective and will test your ability to articulate arguments through the written word. This section of the test requires the candidate to seamlessly blend creativity with technical know-how of the subject presenting one's thoughts and ability to weave magic through words.


A large number of topics are available that you might encounter on your actual test day and there is no way to know which you will encounter. However, preparing some suggested topics can go a long way in helping you streamlining your writing process and get into the groove of writing in a limited period of time. This blog will delve and explore some of the major areas from which several topics have come in previous years for the essay section. The prompts include a variety of topics that will test the range of your subjective skills.


The 6 Categories of GRE Essay Topics


●Education- Unsurprisingly, GRE writing prompts have several topics on education like a candidate's views on student loan, study-work flexibility, real benefits of education amongst many others. It offers a space for students to express their opinions on issues relevant to contemporary educational system.
