Testing Missed My Physics GRE Signup, What To Do?

AI Thread Summary
Graduating with a BSc in Physics and missing the Physics GRE sign-up can be managed by applying to schools that may not require it. It's advisable to register for the next available Physics GRE and inform prospective schools that the score is forthcoming. Many institutions may accept the general GRE in lieu of the Physics GRE. Considering graduate programs abroad can be beneficial, as they often do not require GRE scores. Exploring these options can enhance the chances of successful admission into a master's program.

I am graduating with my BSc in Physics next spring and I want to go to graduate school. The problem being that I missed the sign up date for the Physics GRE, I did however, take the general GRE. What can I do now to get into graduate school?

Sign up for the next time it is offered.
 
Apply to the schools you want and tell them it's on the way when they ask. Now go out and sign up for it. Some schools may not need the physics GRE.
 
Okay thanks for the advice so far. I've been really interested in going abroad to get my masters, they don't seem to require any GRE. Would it be a good idea?
 

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools.

For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'What are the best A-Level options for someone wanting to do Physics?'

Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
