@thunderflyI submitted the online application on January 30, but other required documents were received in mid February. I think this might cause the delay in getting the decision.- 99 replies

@JDeane For TTU, as far as I know they have really limited funding for incoming Master students. However, all of the Phd students here have some sorts of fundings (TA or RA). And yes UT is my top choice, but I will attend any school if it gives me funding. @Pete_Eng2016 I don't think GRE scores matter that much once you have research and working experiences. My GRE scores are low too.- 99 replies

Are these GRE scores decent for good engineering schools ?
alligator replied to alligator's topic in GRE/GMAT/etc
Thank you for your responses! The average GRE for UT Austin is about 166 for Quant and 155 for Verbal. I know my scores are below the average but the deadline is December 15th so I have no time to retake it. I have 6 months of experiences through internships and one semester of research with a professor at my university. I was hoping that my GPA and working experiences can compensate for the low GRE scores. I know I can improve my GRE scores to meet the average of these schools if I can study for 1 or 2 months, but I don't really have time. Now, I am worried because my GRE scores can hurt my chances. -
I just took the GRE last week and scored 153 Verbal, 162 Quantitative and 3 on AWA. I only prepared a little over 2 weeks before the test because I didn't really have time; the school works in senior year eat up most of my time. I have a 3.95 GPA at a good university in the US. I also have two internships in the industry that I intend to apply for a Master Degree. I am wondering if my GRE scores can hold me back from getting admitted to good engineering schools like UT Austin and Texas A&M. Please help!
