Hi everybody,

I know, I know... we have similar posts... but I was so shocked today that I decided to ask for some (at least) moral help.

I'm planning to apply to some top tier unis (PhD in Political Science), but then the GRE scores came. This is my whole situation:

GPA: 3.9 (from a Spanish university)

TOEFL: 105

GRE: 620 (verbal), 700 (quant), 3.5 (aw)

Do I need to retake the GRE because of the AW section?

I will appreciate very much your answers... thank you for that.

Most admission committees don't particularly care about the AW section. Most admission committees will probably look more at your TOEFL, writing sample, etc. to get a better idea how well you can understand the various subject in English.

The answer to your question is definitely NO. Despite your unsatisfactory AW score, your overall GRE score is fair enough. Please remember that SOP is the most important part of your application.

Good luck!
