Speech Language Therapy Graduate School GRE Scores


Question

Posted

Hi all,

I just took my GREs and got a 142 on quantitative and a 159 on verbal. I always sucked at math and I always will. I know I will never get into the 50th percentile for math on the GRE. I am applying to 4 schools (in the PA, MD, and NJ area) and my GPA for the major is 4.00 and my GPA overall is 3.967. I believe I have a strong application in all other areas. However, my quantitative score is worrying me. Do you recommend I re-take it? Thank you!

Read about the programs on their website and get a feel for how they weigh applications . . . some take a holistic encompassing approach and others literally rank you via point system. Do you have any work or volunteer experience in the field or related fields? Your GPA is fantastic especially if you're within the major.

I was accepted to Florida State with a 152V / 148Q / 4W and a 3.6 GPA (psychology major). I had a 4.0 in the CSD prerequisites and some research experience. I REALLY thought I wouldn't get in with those GRE scores, but I ended up being waitlisted for the 4 I applied to and got into 2 of them.

I suggest taking it again with the hopes that your scores show improvement, and in any case, the schools can see that you took it twice! I used Magoosh online for about two months, and my math score went from a 144 to 148.

Best of luck!
