And your verbal is great lol

Really? I just realized that I actually remember seeing 150 and 151 as 50%, I also think you're fine, don't stress it, it could have been worse, you could have had my scores lol

St. John's University

If you can find a date after finals and 15 business days before the first deadline for grad school and are able to study before the GRE then why not.. but your scores are at the 50% so you're okay, mine are far below lol

Looking to say in NY/NJ.. GPA is 3.7 right now, hopefully 3.8/3.9 my graduating semester.. Work for early intervention and volunteer in an Aphasia group once a month, also named to the deans list and am in SLP honors society, hopefully that helps!

Thank you everyone! Maybe I'll try Magoosh, I felt that my Princeton Review book in one night of studying a few words did help, because those words were on the test, but definitely need more assistance! Thanks all for your recommendations!

Arggg I had a feeling that may be the case! I've honestly had no time to even figure out when to take it or to even study, my stupidity for not taking it this summer. Thanks for the heads up though, I have my list of schools and the deadlines and I actually just looked them over, in my list only Kean has the Jan 15 deadline, and the rest are early to mid Feb. So hopefully my second set of scores reach Kean in time and if not I'll have to inform them. Thanks for mentioning that though!

Yeah definitely wasn't but I had no other choice unfortunately, one grad school has a deadline of Dec 1st so I needed to take it unprepared. I figured that I should take it again, but was up in the air on how much studying can truly impact my grades. (Many people have told me oh don't worry about the GRE no one does good and it's pointless to study because there is no true way to studying) though that wasn't my reason for not studying, just didn't have any time! Thanks for the reassurance!

Hey everyone, so I posted earlier for some wise words of wisdom when taking the GRE. After hours of what felt like days, I see 145, 145. I know that that is below average, however, I only took 2 practice exams and looked over a few vocabulary words, all last night, prior to that I did not study anything associated with the GRE. My question is, should I retake the GRE again next month, after finals, this way I can actually study.. or do you guys think it doesn't matter, that I'll probably score the same? Thanks in advance! =)

Thanks so much that was extremely helpful, I appreciate it a lot!

Thanks for that, I didn't know you get the same penalty, haha yes I know! I didn't do so bad on the practice test. Had to schedule it last minute for a grad school that has an early deadline, and with 6 classes no time ugh lol! But thanks for the info!

I'm taking it today! Lol at least I got that checked off, definitely slept well, shockingly

Lol! So nervous, definitely should have studied more.. anything I should keep in mind?

Agreed, though don't forget they also look at your major GPA!

As long as you never dropped below a 2.0 you are fine, most colleges if not all, will put you on academic probation if you have below a 2.0
