ICK!

My GRE score would put me in mensa (I checked), but if you took out the logic section and replaced it with an essay I'd be hosed. My handwriting is impossible to read and my spelling is awful.

I can't understand why the ONE section which shows if you can think would be removed.

My guess is most people do so poorly on it that they removed it to make students look better. If you can't win, lower the bar, brought to you by the American education system.
