The Analyze an Issue task assesses your ability to think critically about a topic of general interest according to specific instructions, and to clearly express your thoughts about it in writing. Each issue statement makes a claim that test takers can discuss from various perspectives and apply to many different situations or conditions. The issue statement is followed by specific instructions. Your task is to present a compelling case for your own position on the issue according to the specific instructions. Before beginning your written
response, be sure to read the issue and instructions carefully and to think about the issue from several points of view, taking into consideration the complexity of ideas associated with those views. Then, make notes about the position you want to develop, and list the main reasons and examples that you could use to support that position.
It is important that you address the central issue according to the specific instructions. The specific instructions might ask you to do one or more of the following:
1. Discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with a general statement and consider circumstances in which the statement might or might not hold true.
2. Discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with a recommendation and consider specific circumstances in which adopting the recommendation would or would not be advantageous.
3. Discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with a claim and anticipate and address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to challenge your position.
4. Discuss your views on a policy and explain the possible consequences of implementing the policy.
5. Discuss two opposing views and explain which view more closely aligns with your own position.
6. Discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with a claim and the reason on which it is based.
The GRE readers scoring your response are not looking for a single right answerin fact, there is no correct position to take. Instead, the readers are evaluating the skill with which you address the specific instructions and articulate and develop an argument to support your evaluation of the issue.
