I just completed my GRE and got 157V/170Q.
Super happy about the Quant, but disappointed by the verbal, especially since in practice tests I was getting above 160.
The UPenn admissions website states that the average for MCIT was 160V/166Q last year. How much will a lower than average verbal score hurt my chances here?
Some other relevant profile info:

Please give me your most frank opinions
