GRE寫作部分將重點(diǎn)考察考生有針對(duì)性地對(duì)具體考題做出反應(yīng)的能力，而非要求考生堆砌泛泛的文字。具體說(shuō)來(lái)，這些重點(diǎn)關(guān)注的能力包括：1、 清楚有效地闡明復(fù)雜觀點(diǎn)；2、 用貼切的事理和事例支撐觀點(diǎn)；3、考察/驗(yàn)證他人論點(diǎn)及其相關(guān)論證；4、支撐一個(gè)有針對(duì)性的連貫的討論；5、控制標(biāo)準(zhǔn)書面英語(yǔ)的各個(gè)要素。寫作部分將聯(lián)合考察邏輯推理和分析寫作兩種技能，并且將加大力度引進(jìn)那些需要考生做出有針對(duì)性的回應(yīng)的考題，降低考生依賴事前準(zhǔn)備（如背誦）的材料的可能性。
