kleonard45 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Does the GRE really matter that much when applying to graduate schools for Library Science? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyl Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 A fair amount of schools didn't even require it, although the higher ranked ones I applied to did. I didn't do fabulously (especially compared to a lot of other folks on here) on the GRE and had no problem getting accepted. I did however have a good GPA, undergrad (archival history) research experience, library work experience, good references and a personal statement that was really good (according a few librarians and my reference letter writers).
