RevieRiver Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 I am a foreigner preparing to apply for a PhD programme for the fall season of 2014! Yesterday I took the GRE, with a score of 316: verbal 157, and quantative 159. I am not quite sure whether such a score is presentable to apply for a PhD programme like literature or cultural studies? Preparing for the GRE has surely been a weary process for someone with a full-time job like me. It has been a hard balance to strike between work and study for the past months. Will someone give me any suggestions? Thank you!

I know that those scores would not bar you admittance from the Ivy League in the context of a Master degree (if you have a great profile), but for a PhD in these fields it could indeed be considered as insufficient. But it really depends on where you want to apply.
RevieRiver Posted September 8, 2013 Author Posted September 8, 2013 Well, I don't entertain any hope of being admitted into top elite schools! I would like to accept any offer as long as it presents itself!
