DBear Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Hi all, I've taken the GRE twice so far and am trying to choose which scores to report for Communication PhD programs First attempt yielded 163 (v) , 143 (q), 5(awa). That came out to 92%, 14%, 93%, respectively. Second time around got 165(v), 149( q), 4.5(awa) for 95%, 35%, 82% My primary concern is that my quant score is terrible the first time around but writing is better. So which of the two would you choose? Or should I just take it again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avflinsch Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Send both sets, the schools may look at the best of each which would be 165v/149q/5awa DBear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azsy16 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I'd report the second set. The writing score is decent either way, but the verbal looks impressive and the quant less distracting. DBear and MathCat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MathCat Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I would send only the second. 14% quant doesn't look good, and a 0.5 difference in AWA is negligible I think - both are good scores anyway. DBear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliticalOrder Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Without question the second one. DBear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already spent nearly 1,000 bucks on test-taking alone (had to take TOEFL as well) @Azsy16 love the way you put that! (and cute dog!)
