How much I need to score on GRE?

[going_to_cornell]

Hi everyone,

I am applying for the MS program at Cornell, and I could not find anywere on the application guidelines what are the recommended / minimum scores at the GRE. Do you have any idea? I want to know how close I am from the target 

 

thanks!

Uhh which MS program?

Food Science!

No idea how competitive food science is but with the Ivy League I'd think 325 or higher to be a real contender, higher if your other application components aren't too strong.

Hi, thanks for your answers, but by 325 you mean the Verbal Reasoning + Quantitative Reasoning scores? And what about the Writing section?

 

thanks!
