Hi guys! I scheduled my GRE for July 2011, not realizing that they are changing the format in August. Grr. I haven't bought my test prep materials yet, but I plan to soon. Do you think if I scheduled another exam (post July), that my test prep materials will be basically useless since they are for 2011 and with the old format?
Realizing my absent minded scheduling mistake, I plan to reschedule my exam for June. I initially chose July because my June will be very busy (three weddings, bridesmaid duty, summer school AND a full-time job!). I hate to have to spend another $50 to change the date! This test is so expensive as it is. =/ Do you think this is my best option? If I were to take the test in July and I wanted to retake it after August, I'd have to test with the new format. I'm worried my test prep materials will be deemed unhelpful at that point.
Any advice on what I should do? Take the exam in July and risk re-taking it under new format or pay the $50 fee to reschedule test date?? Thanks for the help in advance.
