Hi Everyone,
I've run into a bit of an issue and I really don't know what is best.
I'm planning on applying to MPH program this coming winter, so I was planning on writing the GRE this summer. To get a better idea of what school I wanted to go to, I did some thorough research on each of the programs and found that for most of the schools that I was looking at (like U of BC, U of A etc. ) only suggests you have a GRE to be more competitive and that is not required (some put a clause saying that you need to have a intro level statistics course which I have to make up for the GRE score).
The question is - should I still write the GRE? I've looked over the some practise tests and have found them rather tricky (a lot of the material they cover is completely unrelated to my degree, so I'm rather rusty on the skills). I'm worried that writing it and scoring poorly will hurt my application (considering I have a high GPA) rather than not writing it at all.
Any suggestions?
