theominousfuture Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Hey all! My GRE is about a week away and I am in panic city. My practice tests have my quant score at a 147-153 and my verbal score at a 167-169. I'm wondering if my verbal can make up for what might be a quant score a little below 150. The rest of my application should be okay (hopefully) with a 3.53 undergrad and a 4.0 last 60 and 4.0 CSD along with unique, relevant experience, great LORs, great personal statements. I'm mainly looking at SUNY New Paltz (where I did my post ba) and New York Medical College. Any success stories/insights/words of advice are much, much appreciated.
futureSLPhopefullylol Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Your projected quant score is fine, especially if your verbal is gonna be that high
SLP2BNY Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 I have heard they care more about verbal than Q. I only got a 149 on verbal and a 152 on Q and got accepted to every school I applied to so you should be fine!
Southwestspeechie Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Your scores sound fine to me! What do you guys think about a 143 Quant and a 157 Verbal?
AlwaysaFalcon Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 Your score is great! I wish I did that well on the verbal.
CCCaffeinated-SLP Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) I got a 147 on the quantitative section and here I am, as a first year grad student I got accepted multiple places. My verbal was 153- I've heard that a combined "300" score is ideal, and it's okay if there's a few points between the two scores. But then I've talked to people in my cohort who had quant scores in the low 140s, and obviously they made it in, too. Best of luck with your applications! Edited November 9, 2017 by CCCaffeinated-SLP
