I am a history major applying to grad school for elementary education. The programs include Vanderbilt and some other schools that are not so competitive.
The minimum GRE for my program of choice is 1000 combined.
Here are my scores - verbal - 480 quantitative - 580
I have really strong letters of recommendation, a good statement of purpose, and a strong writing sample. I am in my last semester so I am unsure what my final GPA will be. So far it is 3.3. I am hoping to get my GPA up to 3.5 with mainly As this semester.
So, what are my chances? Am I out of the running for Vandy with such low GRE scores? Do I retake or try the MAT? The deadline is in a month and a half.
