So I thought I was prepared for the GRE, I studied on and off for about 2 months with intensive study for the past 3 weeks, completed all practice tests, know most of the equations. I don't know if I can attribute this poor test performance to anxiety or just lack of preparation ( I know many students prepare for 5+ months). I know many of you will say that I'm jumping the gun without seeing my score, but based on how I felt on practice exams and my inability to solve the basic problems on the test, I'm almost sure my score is less than 600. That being said what should I do? I can apply to a school in Canada that doesn't require the GRE (thinking of University of Toronto but I don't know how selective they are), or set myself a year back and repeat the exam. I honestly don't know what I'd do differently this time. I feel like I was prepared. I am a decent student 3.5 overall, 3.9 in Physics, I did well on the general GRE but I feel this exam is very important for admission committees, especially since I want to do theory. I feel that a < 600 score will result in across to board rejections. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
