I am 'assuming' you are applying to a graduate program somewhere, since the only thing GRE means to me is  Graduate Record Examinations. I honestly do NOT understand what you are asking here, but what you have written and the way in which it is written, isn't leading me to think you are even qualified to be going for a graduate degree - in anything.

The GRE is a lot different now (can be done online and NOT as structured/rigid) than when I took it many years ago, but a large chunk of it is still on your communication skills ie reading comprehension, use of vocabulary, critical reasoning skills, ability to formulate arguments, and plenty of timed essay questions. There is no spell-check available for you when you take it and the misuse/incorrect spellings of words count against you. Your words don't seem to make much sense, even here in the FC Forums, but good luck with it.
