Thank you for the advice!
My GPA is very low, and I am definitely hoping to improve my GRE scores this summer to try and compensate for that.
With 2 months of daily practice, I am hoping to get both Verbal and Quantitative scores above 165, and know I can do much better on the writing section. Lack of familiarity definitely hurt the first time around, but I was essentially taking it as a practice exam to help judge how much I need to prepare before I take it again in August.
If I take the minimum hours required for my BS in Geophysics in Fall and Spring next year, I will be taking 7 and 4 hours each semester respectively.
I need an 10 additional hours for a double major, 6 for a minor, or I could just take a variety of courses without trying to pursue a minor or double major.
Any thoughts on which option would look best to an admissions board?
I have also considered taking the physics GRE if I decide to not pursue a physics minor.
