lightballsdeep Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Looking for advice (like everyone else!), do you think average gre scores (Q 152, V 159, AWA ?) will hurt my application with a low gpa. Should I retake with the intent to get stellar scores?

lightballsdeep Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 An 81st percentile for verbal and 40 for quant isn't bad.... What was your gpa? And what kind of anthroGPA is 2.94 (actually low, not GradCafe low!), and archaeology.Thanks!
TheBumChikiBum Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Things are not so simple. Depends on university you are applying to. Decent university might accept that. 2.94 is al-right. Would've been better if you could have covered the lost ground in GRE. Nonetheless, try and cover it in SOP and LOR. State reason for low acads in SOP.If you have a few research papers under your belt, you might well be on your way to success, sir.
lightballsdeep Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 Thanks for the encouragement, I think you're right, I'll just have to make up for the weak GPA with a great remaining application packet.
lightballsdeep Posted October 15, 2015 Author Posted October 15, 2015 Updating to say my AWA score is a 5. Any experience submitting lame quant stores with pretty okay verbal and analytical?
