Just an FYI for anyone planning on taking the GRE in anticipation of applying next year. Don't wait until the last minute.
Directly from the ETS website:

If you need scores before November 2011, start planning now. You will need to take the current test. You will want to register early to ensure you get a seat for your preferred date and location.
If you don't need scores until after November 2011, taking the GRE revised General Test is a smart move. With these new changes in place, the revised test will give you a better test experience — and offer an even better way to show schools that you're ready for graduate-level work.
 
I had a sample of the new version on my GRE. I'd recommend knocking out the old one while there is still time. The new one messes with your head too much for a standardized test.
