I'm taking it on thursday, but I just realized I'm pretty sure I never had an option to choose which schools I want my score sent to.
I also never received a confirmation email, so i'm a little nervous. I'm just going to call the test center to confirm my appointment, but do you know if you choose the schools before or after taking the exam? No calculator either right? haha thank you. Any other advice/insight would be great too

I recently took the GREs. If you are taking the CAT (which most likely you are) you choose the schools to report your scores to after the exam. Also, you receive your score right away. There is no calculator, but there is a small unscored test portion that you can use the calculator with. I don't believe that I received a confirmation certificate, but I printed the email that they sent to me. You should call your center to double check. I get this test and the subject test confused. Best advice is to at least familiarize yourself with the test format prior to taking the test. There are two essays, analogies, antonyms, sentence completions, and reading comprehension as part of the verbal score. The quantitative is divided into two sections. In one you solve problems. In the other you are given two quantities in col A and B. You have to choose whter A is greater, B is greater, the two are equal, or the relationship cannot be determined.
