CMG

Hi Everyone! I am currently considering applying to school psychology programs in order to get my EdS. I graduated with a 3.8, have great recs, and a strong resume to show my experience working in schools. What's making me nervous is the GRE. I scored well on verbal reasoning and was very pleased with my analytical writing score. However, I am embarrassed by my quantitative reasoning score. It is not even at the 50th percentile, which I know is a cutoff point for many schools. The deadline for my first choice program is January 1st, so I don't know that I will have time to retake the GRE and get my quantitative score up. My first choice says they do not have an absolute cutoff for GRE scores, and they seem to have a more holistic approach to admissions, but realistically, will this factor prevent me from having a strong chance at being accepted into programs? Should I perhaps address this weakness in my application? My top choice does not ask me to explain any weaknesses, so I wasn't sure if I should slip a line into my SOP to address it. Any advice is appreciated!
