Thanks Radcradick - That makes me feel a lot better. I don't think I could have a 'significant' quantitative jump. At most I would have been hoping to get it up another 20-30 points... I think I'll put these stupid prep books on craigslist and stop beating myself up about it. - Misty

ugh, nobody wanted to reply... :-( i feel utterly rejected.

Hi, So after months of studying I took the GRE today. I got a 760 verb, 680 quant. I did SO much better in practice tests - but somehow ended up running out of time on the quantitative section (still had 5 questions left at the end of the test). I was hoping to get into Berkeley MPP or UCLA MPP. While I'm above the total average score for applicants, and well above the average verbal score, my quantitative score is a 30 points short of their average quantitative score. (http://gspp.berkeley...statistics.html - admin stats for Berkeley) I'm so unhappy. What should I do? If I retake it, won't they get both scores anyway? But If I don't retake it, I feel like i won't have a chance. Background - I've been working in the nonprofit sector for a few years, 3.67 GPA from a good 4-year college in New York, majored in Multidisciplinary Studies. Please advise - do I retake it or let it lie? Thank you very much.
