Thanks4Downvoting Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Trying to decide whether to take them again... 620V 740Q ??AW I'm apply to a handful of first and second tier places....is it worth it to take them again?? PhD. I am finishing a Masters now. I would definitely re-take them again, trying to get above 700 on your Verbal. You don't want to be discounted at any programs because of your GRE score.

fsm Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) I'd also like a GRE opinion if possible. I'm applying for an M.A. at Boston University, Vanderbilt, University of Indiana, UNC, and a few others. I've only taken the test once so far, but have signed up for another test at the end of the month. When I found out my score, I was only disappointed in my analysis section. That being said, I'm not sure how much studying would improve it. My undergrad GPA was a 3.4, I was very involved in extracurriculars, and I am currently auditing a graduate level methods and theories course. V: 620 Q: 700 A: 4.5 Any suggestions/opinions would be very appreciated. I've started stressing over applying.

I didn't think some of those schools required the GRE? I don't remember Vandy needing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
