I think there's no further point discussing this, it might be different for the US but since I'm from not-English speaking Europe they simply don't care about it bec they just wanna see that you can do calculus.The program isn't even in English.Anyway, my question has been answered then (or rather not cause I looked up the official ruling myself) but thanks anyway. On a side note, it's easy to say hey go and retake it but as I am used to not or barely paying for education paying 170$ every month for admission tests isn't something that I can afford on a regular basis.Not even mentioning that I'd have to keep investing time into it to not forget all the stuff and that it's not guaranteed I'd do well enough again esp if I would prepare and do all sections as most people here suggest.

Well i didn't come for normative advice but to ask if someone has experience.I talked to the university and they simply do not care! about the other scores (don't ask me why they want them completed then though) so you can get a 0 and a 130 as long as you have the quant threshold it's fine.I see your point but it is completely irrelevant

Well I disagree with that.As I said they care only about the quant score so might as well get 130 on verbal and 0 on writing as it simply does not matter.So my question was simply aiming at whether someone has experience how this gets scored.

Did my GRE today, everything went fine, got 161v and 162q with 160 needed.Didn't bother with the writign as I didn't need it.Or so i thought.Just now read that the university accepts test scores only if all sections are completed.Now my question: I didn't answer the essay just put in a joke sentence that I don't need it so I won't bother the poor person with having to read something and a smiley lol.Didn't answer anything on the second essay.Does this count as a 0 or as NS, anyone experience with that? Absolutely retarded from my side if I had read that earlier I would have at least copied the topic to get a 0.5.Would obv completely suck having to take it again bec of that...
