My first question is regarding GRE scores. I took it twice and scored pretty similarly. I was wondering if anyone had insight as to if one score looks better than the other or if the difference does not amount to much. Thanks. First Test: 162Q, 156V, 4 AW Second Test: 159Q, 161V, 4.5 AW Still very early on in my process but figured I would post my "am I competitive" since I am on here. Program: MPA Schools considered: Princeton WWS, HKS, Georgetown, others TBD Major: Human Resource Management (I know, very random) from Rutgers GPA: 3.8 (Good GPA, very easy major) GRE: Please see questions above First Test: 162Q, 156V, 4AW Second test: 159Q, 161V, 4.5AW Undergrad school: Rutgers Years since UG: 2 as of today Work experience: 2 years working for a Congressman. Worked in district managing his community affairs. Deputy campaign manager on his reelection campaign. Moved to DC to work for him last month Coursework: My biggest concern. I took Stats 101, Micro, and standard calc, but it wasn't required for my major so I did not take many classes Language: Very basic Spanish, trying to learn more (just bought Rosetta Stone) SoP: TBD LoR: My boss, a US Congressman. I am all set with other ones but academic one may be a challenge Other: I am on my local planning board and a mentor in Big Brothers Big Sisters
