Abstract

Because of the wide usage of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) as a selection instrument and the general acceptance of its predictive ability, a review was made of recently published research articles concerning the predictive validity of the scores on the GRE relative to the criteria of grade point average and general success in graduate school. The data from the articles reviewed were reported, and the weight of the evidence suggests that this wide usage of the GRE as a selection instrument must be questioned. These data also illustrate the need for additional predictive studies in this area as none of the results were found to be conclusive.
