Abstract
This study was concerned with a determination of the predictive validity of the Graduate Record Examinations Aptitude Test: the verbal section (GRE-V), the quantitative portion (GRE-Q) and the total score (GRE-T). The criterion variable was the graduate grade point average (GGPA); subjects were 135 students enrolled in a Master of Arts in Counseling Program (MAC) at an urban university. The GRE-V part was correlated significantly with GGPA (.26), whereas the GRE-Q was not. The GRE-T score was correlated .24 with GGPA. It would appear that the GRE-V portion largely contributed to this correlation. These findings raise questions regarding the adequacy of the predictive validity of the GRE Aptitude Test for this sample of students for the criterion measure employed.
