Should I retake the GRE? Stats inside.

[radiomars]

Hey guys,

I have a BS in Anthropology from UCLA, with a 3.78 GPA.

Just took the GRE today. Unofficial scores: 160 Verbal, 162 Quantitative.

The verbal score is killing me. It's the 83rd percentile, but I was averaging nowhere below the 95th percentile in my practice tests.

I calculated the scores over to the old system and it seems like I have a 770 in Quant, and a measly 600 in Verbal.

I'm applying to UBC, UCLA, UCSB, and Yale.

I've been told by my PI at UBC that the scores are high enough for admission, but if I were to get 750 on the Verbal, I would probably be first in line for a fellowship.

Do you think it's worth retaking?

Thanks.
