There are two parts to the GRE Essay section. This section is called the Analytical Writing Assessment, and consists of an 'Issue' essay and an 'Argument' essay. You will have 30 minutes for each essay, and you should aim to be clear, coherent, and valid in your points. A good score will show graduate schools that you have strong critical thinking skills, English skills, and can make a coherent argument. 

Issue Essay
In this type of essay, you will be presented with a general statement or opinion of some sort, related to politics, social issues, or education. You will have to take a stance on whether you agree or disagree with the statement, and explain your reasons for the same. 

Argument Essay
The prompt here will be a situation where you will have to analyze the logic shown in the situation. You should evaluate the evidence provided and clearly present your arguments in a coherent fashion.

Grading scale
The essays are scored in a scale of 0 to 6, in 0.5 point increments. Your score will be the average score given by two graders. A zero means your essay did not make any sense, which is equivalent to submitting a blank page. A six means your essay consistently shows excellent arguments, command over the English language, and you were able to dissect the prompt well.
