Fr1224 Posted October 6, 2016 Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) Hello guys, It would be great if you guys help me on this issues. I have taken gre exam some weeks ago and my scores are Verbal-148 Quant-164 AWA: 2.5 As you can see i got some terrible marks on AWA. What you guys think? should i retake GRE? I want to pursue my MS in EEE and not at all eyeing any top grad schools. My undergrad cgpa is 3.79. Thanks in advance for advices. Edited October 6, 2016 by Fr1224
GREMasterEMPOWERRichC Posted October 7, 2016 Posted October 7, 2016 Hi Fr1224, Many Schools/Programs expect an AWA score of 4.0 or higher, so this AWA score might be an issue for you (if you want to know what a particular School expects of you though, you should contact the Admissions Committee and ask!). A 2.5 means that you didn't write what the prompt asked you to write about - and you likely went 'off topic.' There might also be other issues, including length/thoroughness, grammar/style, etc., but the bigger factors would be the initial ones that I mentioned. GRE Masters aren't born, they're made, Rich
