Reporting GRE scores to Graduate schools question?

Thursday, July 8th, 2010
Matt W asked:


I have taken the GRE exam twice, and I am about to start applying to graduate schools. The first time I took the exam I did extremely well on the quantitative portion, but no so great on verbal. When I took the exam again, I did very well on verbal, but my math score was lower than the first test. I have two questions about this:

1) When I unofficially report my scores on the application, would it be acceptable to put my highest score for Verbal and Quantitative, even if they are from different tests? The applications that I have seen only ask for the two different scores separately.

2) If I cannot for some reason, will the schools look at the two different tests scores?

Thanks!

I have very little clue as to what kind of grades you need to get into which schools. I’ve got a 3.8 GPA right now in Psyc with a Poli Sci minor. I’ll be graduating early. Do you think I could get into an ivy league graduate program for psyc, either MA or PHD?

How do psychology graduate schools look at GPAs from two different undergrad schools?

Friday, July 2nd, 2010
cd76 asked:


I transferred to another college with 3 semesters left for my undergrad in psychology. My GPA at my current school is 3.9, but my old one was more like 3.3. Do graduate schools weigh the current school higher, average the GPAs, or what?

Thanks!
