GREs for the third time, worth it?

[stefanw]

Hi All! I am looking into applying to MPP and MA in International Relations for Fall 2016. 

I have been researching about GREs average for schools like UChicago, Georgetown, NYU etc and feel that my GREs grades are still not very competitive. 1st GRE: 149Q/150V 2nd GRE:153Q/156V (with lesser preparation for the second time)

I would like some advice if I should take the exam again. Thanks in advance (:

Hi stefanw,

You made some nice progress between your first and second GREs, so it seems like you have the potential to improve. Since you've named some competitive Schools, having a higher GRE score would likely be quite helpful to your applications.

1) How long did you study before each of your attempts?

2) What resources did you use?

3) When are you planning to apply to School?

GRE Masters aren't born, they're made,
