根据最新的ETS邮件： Dear Colleague, As a valued member of the graduate and business school community, we wanted to provide you with a special preview of an exciting announcement we will make tomorrow: In July 2012, the GRE® revised General Test will include the new ScoreSelectSM option, designed to help test takers approach test day with more confidence so they can do their personal best. This announcement is big news because it builds on the momentum which began in 2011 with the launch of the GRE revised General Test, when test takers worldwide shared their enthusiasm for the new test-taker friendly design. These enhancements help even more people feel good about making a move toward graduate or business school, which leads to more opportunity in their future. With the new ScoreSelect option, GRE test takers now can decide which test scores to send to the institutions they designate. On test day, when viewing their scores at the test center*, test takers can select the: •ScoreSelect Most Recent option — Send their scores from their current test administration (FREE). •ScoreSelect All option — Send their scores from all administrations in the last five years (FREE). Test takers can decide which option to use for each of their four FREE score reports. After test day, test takers can send Additional Score Reports for a fee and select: •ScoreSelect Most Recent option — Send their scores from their most recent test administration. •ScoreSelect All option — Send their scores from all administrations in the last five years. •ScoreSelect Any option — Send their scores from one OR many test administrations in the last five years. Regardless of which option test takers choose, scores for a test administration must be reported in their entirety. 及官方解答：[url=http://www.ets.org/gre/news/gre_scoreselect_option]http://www.ets.org/gre/news/gre_scoreselect_option[/url] Princeton, N.J. (April 24, 2012) — Following the successful introduction of the GRE® revised General Test, the GRE Program is now introducing the ScoreSelectSM option as one more enhancement to its more test-taker friendly platform. With the ScoreSelect option, GRE test takers can decide which test scores to send to the institutions they designate, so they can send the scores they feel reflect their personal best. The ScoreSelect option, available starting in July 2012, builds on the momentum that started with the 2011 launch of the test-taker friendly GRE revised General Test, which test takers worldwide responded to with great enthusiasm. "The ScoreSelect option focuses on helping test takers succeed on the road to an advanced degree because they can approach test day with more confidence," says James Wimbush, Dean of the University Graduate School and Professor of Business Administration, Indiana University, and 2011–2012 GRE Board Chair. "Adding enhancements, like the new ScoreSelect option, to our test-taker friendly platform helps people feel good about making a move toward graduate and business school, and that is what's most exciting about this announcement," says David Payne, Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Higher Education Division at ETS. "Anytime we can make changes that improve test takers' testing experience and confidence to succeed, we create more opportunity for all students." Just knowing you have the option to decide which GRE scores to send to institutions should give you added confidence the first time you take the test. However, if you decide you want to take a GRE test again, that's okay. You can do so once every 30 days，and no more than five times within any continuous rolling 12-month period， depending on test center availability. 从上面邮件可以看出重要的几点变化： 1.考试结束后，考生可以免费只递送最新的GRE成绩，也可以选择免费递送最近五年所有的GRE成绩。 2.考试结束后，考生可以付费，只递送最新的GRE成绩，或递送最近五年所有的GRE成绩，或者递送最近五年内任意的几次GRE分数。 3.近五年考生的GRE分数均会保留。 4.上述举措从2012年7月开始施行。 5.考试间隔由60天缩短为30天，但每年的考试次数仍最多为5次。 送上面的邮件可以了解到，考生在未来，进行刷分是可行的。从某个侧面讲，ETS再次放弃了自己的原则，成全了唯分数至上的中国考生，也成全了嗜钱如命的ETS。 但是刷分有无必要呢？ 个人认为，GRE作为申请中权重最小的一部分，其重要性远次于GPA，科研实习背景，甚至次于TOEFL。但是从顶尖学校，例如常春藤学校汇总的录取者平均GRE分数来看，我们必须认真对待GRE。个人建议，如果考生达到目标院校的GRE成绩要求，甚至AW不能满足（文科除外），完全可以把现有的精力放在GPA，科研及TOEFL上。但是如果考生未到达目标院校的要求，甚至只有1000分左右，重考是必须的，因为你从心底就没有对GRE足够的尊重，足够的投入，当然也不能体会GRE的真谛，收获失败也就是必须的了。 无论如何，希望大家能认真备考，踏实求真，一次性取得理想的GRE成绩，早日飞越。
