I think that all necessary formulas are provided. Could be wrong. Keep in mind i took that ten years ago.

I took it last year and there was no formula sheet provided. Which GRE is she taking the subject or the general GRE?

In all honesty the general GRE is not really that difficult. It is incredibly similar to the SAT in the way they ask questions and the content that is on it.

I took it about 15 years ago and there was no formula sheet provided. It was just you and your pencil.

The only forumulas you would possibly need would be for simple geometry or algebra, and if she can't remember those . . .

I'd say you can't really study for it, either you know it or you don't.

What type of graduate school is she applying for?

She needs to eat peanut butter just before the test. Seriously! It's brain food: I got through the GRE and the later licensing exam with flying colors- why? Peanut butter on toast.

when i took the gre it was a breeze. that was 2 years ago. no formula sheet was given for the general test.

if she's paid attention at all while at school she should be fine. the best thing she can do is relax, get a good nights sleep and be comfortable while taking the test.
