So I'm a junior taking the GRE in the next month or so to apply for graduate art history programs in the fall (mostly PhDs), and I'm worried about the GRE score. I realize quantitative doesn't matter all that much, which is unfortunate because I keep doing weirdly above average on this part. The problem is the verbal on all my practice tests have been 155-157, and I know this isn't high enough for somewhere like Columbia or Harvard. That being said, does anyone have any insight to a minimum score needed to places a bit less well known in this field like USC, Northwestern, UCSB? (I realize these are still great programs but not quite the hype that some of the ivy league programs have) Anything helps here!
