Breathe! The GRE is easier than the SAT. Well the math is. The verbal is relatively easier. They expect a bigger vocabulary but you have a bigger vocabulary. Remember I was actually trained to tutor the GREs. I know these things.
Don't freak out if the questions seem really hard. I'm sure you know this, but remember that the computer generated test keeps asking you hard questions until you get them wrong, then moves to easier ones.
The non-math parts are no big deal. You are brilliant and have a huge vocabulary. About the ONLY thing you need to worry about is not to panic. If you can stay relaxed you'll do fine.
As far as the math, I'm sure horvendile is correct, but then he's a math guy. My problem with GRE math was that I could have done it easily when I had just finished high school, but 5 years later, having done no math in the interim, It wasn't all that easy. But there are enough easy questions that you won't look too innumerate, and I doubt they look hard at math scores in rabbinical school.
