GRE at Home Experience with Yashwanth Mulakala - Procedure, Monitoring, Rules, Exam Difficulty

The 'GRE at Home' is a new test mode that allows you to take the GRE at your own home. In this video, I interview Yashwanth Mulakala who took the GRE at home in November 2020 and scored 319. He had a technical difficulty during his exam wherein his internet briefly disconnected. He discusses what happened exactly, what ETS did to fix the problem, and offers his advice for students looking to take the exam at home. Yashwanth also answers other important questions that you submitted to us on our Instagram poll. Hope this helps you in your GRE prep!

    Hey Sachin, The whiteboard you previously suggested isn’t rigid enough for someone to hold up and right, will that be an issue? Do we have to buy whiteboards that can be placed on our lap for the proctor to be able to see it?
