Write to the schools why their GRE score is low?

[Nancy M]

Hi on one of my appliacations it gives you 500 words to let them know why your GRE score is low.  Has anyone done this?  I have some learning disabilities but not sure I want the graduate programs to know this.   Do you think it would hurt or help?  I have a high GPA and lots of clinical and leadership experience.  Thanks

If they're allowing you to clarify then take the opportunity. They're gonna see that your score is low regardless.

If you don't want the program to know you obviously don't have to tell them. But there are a few people in my cohort with ADHD so I wouldn't worry, especially if your GPA is high.
