Thanks!! I'm pretty confident on my letters I have 3 professors and a profession contact from Newmont writing them. Thank again.

Yes it is possible to retake. I was planning on retaking it soon anyways walking out of the test I was hitting my self in the head when I relized I could have solved so many more of the problems. Thank you, I appreciate brutal honesty.

I know I can do better on the GRE I currently have a 149 V 152 Q and a 4.5 Writing. Is it even worth retaking them? I am applying to WWU and UM (Montana) and UNLV. None of these schools can give me a clear answer on what a minimum GRE score to get in is. I have a 3.5 GPA, two summers of working for a mine, and a host of classes, including independent research. Will my horrible GRE scores hold me back?
