A meta-analytic review was conducted on published studies examining the relationship between performance on the quantitative and verbal components of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE-Q and GRE-V, respectively) and graduate grade point average (GGPA). The weighted average effect sizes (d) for GRE-Q and GRE-V were .445 and .591, respectively, and their resultant correlation coefficients were .22 (GRE-Q and GGPA) and .28 (GRE-V and GGPA), p = n.s. Thus an average of 6.3% of the variance in graduate level academic achievement, as represented by GGPA, was accounted for by performance on the GRE-Q and GRE-V. The utility of this examination in the graduate admissions process is discussed.
