GRE Quant - it's a horrible score. Taken twice - I can't crack it? Can I even apply with these stats? Thank you!!
  2. Hey audre.bored! The average for Goldman is 159 Quant, so I'm a whopping 5 points below The average verbal is 162, but I doubt that my 166V will compensate for quant.
  3. So I've been studying a lot for my GREs when I first took them in September. First score was 162V and 153Q and 5 Essay. Then I got Magoosh and started studying like crazy for a month - focusing mostly on math. I did most practice problems and watched most videos. Two days before the test, got hit by a car while riding a bike - but I kept to my appt. The result on the second test - 166V, 153Q (!!!!!!!). I'm heartbroken. The first application deadline is Dec. 1 and I don't have the time to retake. Should I even apply? GPA - 3.7/4 Uni: University of Washington, Seattle Major: Phil/Accounting Work Experience: 2 years accounting, 3 years running a program in solar non-profit Applying to: UC Berkeley MPP, UChicago MPP, Duke MPP, Michigan MPP. Is it a waste of my money to apply?
