Gilded Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 What's that GRE chemistry anyway? Some "US/UK only" thing?

Primarygun Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 No. I live in Hong Kong. The HKCEE which is equivalent to GSCE will be taken by me in May next year.

fermions Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 oh.. I think I'm taking the HKCEE this year.. anyway GSCE is not quite the same as the HKCEE.... the GSCE is easier but seems to have a wider syllabus... and does not go into the topics as deep as HKCEE... hard luck I'm not born in UK

apathy Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 The chemistry GRE is hell. I took it a few years ago. It's really heavy in organic synthesis and physical chemistry. Some of the questions were really just pure physics. They have complicated analytical questions that don't have too many round numbers and they wouldn't let me use a calculator, so half the time I was taking the test, I'm sitting here doing long division. It's really light on inorganic which is my strong suit, and the pchem, like I said, was always obscure. The organic questions are ridiculous. It'll be something like, "which set of seven reagents in four steps will NOT produce the above transformation." Anyway, if you don't have to take it, just don't bother. It was humbling for me. But maybe you are a genius and are not swayed by such talk.

It's a typical requirement for graduate programs in the US. There's a general one and various subject tests also. The general one is a breeze and the subject ones are really tough.
