Should I retake the GRE?

[answerRock]

Hi guys,

I am a student from China,and I have taken the GRE test.

But the final result is so terrible:V154 Q169 AW3.0.

The AW has became a nightmire to me.

I'm going to study the Materials Science as a master. Should I retake the GRE?

3Q for ur advices!!

Probably. To get funding for a Master's only, you will need to be in the 90-100 percentile in quant., and at least 50% in AW. I'm not sure they will care about verbal, especially since you will have taken the TOEFL anyway. If you aren't concerned about funding, I'm sure there are programs out there that would accept that score if you have a very strong research background.
