Yes. It is necessary. In fact I would argue we should have more of it.

I can't speak to social work, but in my discipline (economics) the GRE is critically important. It's impossible to get through graduate-level coursework without an extremely strong math background, which makes the math sub-score a uniquely helpful screen for admissions committees. It's counter-intuitive, but a student's undergraduate coursework in neither math nor economics really tells you what you need to know, but the GRE does.
