FUTUREMSWGIRL Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Hi all, Since I've been on the forum last. I decided to change my major to social work. I'm nearing the end of my junior year. I have to get back into FSU for my MSW, because of my disability I do not have the luxury of moving. I took the GRE yesterday and made an abysmal 141Q 145V. I have never had an aptitude for standardized tests. I've never passed one According to FSUs website. They do not have a minimum score. The website says:What is the minimum required score for the GRE ? We do not have a minimum required score for the GRE exam.While we do not have a minimum required score for the GRE, please give your best effort, as your score is considered in the review of your file. Aside from that: I have a 3.815 GPA (hopefully 3.9 by the time I graduate) I have a minor in psych Currently a RA in a lab I've been an activity coordinator at an assisted living facility I have an application in with Big Brothers Big Sisters to become a mentor ( should hear something soon) in various honor societies/ have gotten academic scholarships will have good LORs (I think) I'm proficient in SPSS, Powerpoint,Excel and Word I do not believe that a horrible score should preclude me from getting in. It doesn't tell the world how successful I will be as a SWer; it just shows that I suck at standardized tests! Any advice would help!
awash_ Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I know for FSU's Planning program, they require at least a 300. I would assume that's across the board generally (unless you're STEM or Lit, which generally require higher scores in either Quant or Verbal). I wouldn't worry too much; the rest of your profile sounds great!
