I was just wondering how significant the quantitative gre score was in admission decisions. My score isn't awful (76th percentile) and my pgre is 850. Just curious.
Yes, your GRE Quant score is an important factor in the admissions process for many graduate programs. It is often used as a measure of your quantitative skills and ability to succeed in graduate-level coursework.
A good GRE Quant score is typically around 160 or above. However, what is considered a good score may vary depending on the specific program and institution you are applying to.
Not necessarily. While a high Quant score may be more important for certain programs, a high Verbal score may be more important for others. It is important to research the specific requirements and preferences of the programs you are applying to.
It may be more difficult to get into a graduate program with a low Quant score, but it is not impossible. Some programs may place more emphasis on other aspects of your application, such as your letters of recommendation or personal statement. It is important to showcase your strengths in these areas if your Quant score is lower than desired.
Yes, you can retake the GRE if you are not satisfied with your Quant score. However, keep in mind that some programs may average your scores if you take the exam multiple times. It is important to carefully consider whether retaking the GRE is worth the time and effort.
