GRE Score Averages on Internet

Hi all, 

 

I am interested in knowing your thoughts regarding the GRE average scores you can find on the internet for various programs. Are they accurate? If, for example, the school claims they range from 154-159, should you be concerned if you are on the low end of those? Or are you really okay? 

 

For the purposes of me, I have a 166 Verbal and 154 Quant. These fall into the ranges for International Affairs programs, but I don't know whether they are really okay or not!! I don't have time to take the tests over, unfortunately, so I'm wondering if I should just wait another year. 

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

I'd say your scores sound solid. As many on these boards have said before, good GRE scores aren't going to get you in but bad ones can keep you out. If you fall near the posted average, you are at or above the scores of many who were admitted. Just relax and work on more important parts of your application like SOP, etc. :) 

Hope that helps!
