Is it possible to take the GRE in Korea? Are there any test-prep classes/materials? Thanks.

It is. I was looking into this before. There are two parts to the exam. The first part is computer-based which can be scheduled pretty much anytime. The second part is a written portion which is only offered twice a year. Yes, that's right. Twice a year. Apparently, it's to discourage cheating. That applies to China, Korea, and Taiwan. But, if you go to the Philippines, you can take the whole thing anytime. Either way, check out their website and call them up:

My coworker took the GRE here. He did it at Yonsei University. It was in two parts. If you want, I can ask him more about it. He leaves for vacation on Friday though.

I want to start an online Masters program. Tons of questions about it, namely about the GRE. I've taken a few online practice tests and they seem like they're manageable if I study well. Anyway, here are some questions I have about it.

How do I find out about test dates and locations?
Are there any resources available at bookstores of will I have to have Amazon ship me things?
Also, in general, how long does it take to prepare?

Any other information pertaining to online Masters programs, the GRE and resources to study it would be very much appreciated.

For context, I'm looking to start Penn State's online Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction -- Children's Literature program.
