International Applicant

[Nirmani]

I have a Second Lower in my undergraduate degree in Economics and Management from University of London and a Masters in Business Studies from the University of Colombo, with an average B grade for my classes (I don't know how this translates into a GPA, though as the University's grade boundaries and those of a 4 point GPA calculation seem to differ vastly!).

 

I did the GRE two days ago and got 155 for both verbal and quantitative. While this may not be an impressive score on it's own, apparently what is considered a good score for different courses are different (are they?).

 

I want to apply for a Masters in Education with a focus on Special Needs Education.

 

So here are my questions:

> Do you think the educational qualifications so far is good enough to warrant entry?

> Do you think this GRE is good enough, or should I retake it? A lot of the courses I've looked at don't ask for it, but I wanted to offset my rather mediocre undergrad grades and increase my chances of getting in, by taking it.

Hi Nirmani,

most Masters in Education MEd programs in the US do not require GRE scores!
