Hi all I am applying to ortho programs. I took my GRE on 07/16/22, so I am still waiting for the official score report. Once it comes out, how am I supposed to send it to the schools? Can I just send the score once to ADEA PASS for all the schools participating in PASS? Or would I need to send...

Hi everyone, As the title states, Im not sure how I should manage my summer with apps coming this cycle. I am currently working as an acute PT Tech at a very large hospital with a very supportive manager that will also help me obtain observation hours in other clinics. My current issue is that...

Hello, I am a second year dental student who aspires to be a someday orthodontist, I currently have a 3.92 GPA, am doing research and am looking to take the GRE this summer. I was wondering if any ortho residents, orthodontists, or upperclassmen who were also aspiring to become orthodontists...

Hi world. I’m in dental school considering applying to orthodontic residencies in a couple years. I know most (if not all) require the GRE — and I took the GRE…2 years ago for a different grad program that I ended up not doing. I studied hard and got a good score that I’d like to use...

I don't want to focus too much on my sob story, but the gist of it was my biggest support system passed away during undergrad and I spiraled. To get straight to the point, I graduated in the spring with a 2.7 GPA, have over hundreds of community service hours, research, and I'm currently a CMA...

Hi! I was wondering what opinion people have/what people are doing about programs that do not require the GRE. I have heard many different things regarding whether to send them, or to just save some money. I feel fine about my score, I do not really think it will necessarily add or detract from...

Hi! Would anyone like to make a GRE Study Group? I plan on taking my GRE May of 2021. We can do virtual meetings and talk about problems we are having. Any advice from past test takers? Thanks!

I’m going to apply to USC’s post-bacc program designed for career changers and one of their requirements is a standardized test score. I took the GRE and did not do well on it… I got a 152 in Verbal and 148 in quant. I’m considering taking it again (really don’t want to) but if it looks like I...

Just got my GRE results and got 150V 143Q and a 5.0 in the writing section. Debating whether or not to retake the gre because of my quant score I meet the exact minimum score for the quant section for the school I really want to go to (FGCU). The other parts of my application are pretty...

Hi everyone! This is my first time posting. I recently took the At Home GRE and my (unofficial) scores were not as high as I was hoping. A 293 overall :/ As far as writing goes, I think that section went okay. Many schools I'm looking at applying to no longer require the GRE or waived it due...

Hey guys, I've been doing my research on each Optometry school and I've noticed that some will accept the GRE instead of the OAT. Has anyone gotten into a program using only the GRE test?

Hi! I got rejected this application cycle, and it was my first time applying to PT school. I am hoping some of you could help me with a few questions. 1. In November, I got rejected from a school, both early and regular decision. Is it too late now to reach out to the school and ask why they...

Hey guys, I wanted your advise on my chances of getting into PT school as my senior year is slowly approaching. I was looking into applying into the University of Colorado, Regis, Rocky Mountain, Puget Sound, and Eastern Washington. Cum GPA: 3.9 GRE: Q: 152 V: 145 E: 4.0 Hours: 3 settings...

Hey everyone, I hope this is allowed. After taking the GRE this past weekend and seeing numerous posts and discussions about the results, I went digging through ETS to find some true statistics. As it turns out, when you tell them your intended graduate degree, they use it to sort us and...

Hello, I am currently a senior with a 3.0 with a 3.1 in my major. I plan on applying to MSW programs and one counseling program but I'm a worried that my GPA will drop this semester. Not too low but i expect at least a 2.9. In the event it does, will I still have a chance at grad school? Most...

Hey everyone! I took the GRE on 9/20 for the first time (I waited til the last minute, I know) and just received my official scores: 162V, 154Q, 6W. I'm not super satisfied with my quant score, and I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it to retake for schools with apps due 11/1 and later...

Im looking to see if anyone has a list of all the schools sorted by their minimum GRE scores. Trying to see who I can apply to.

Hey everyone, So i took the GRE for the 2nd time today and my score did not improve. I feel discouraged because I studied so much and I got near the same score once again. I don't feel like I should take it for a 3rd time, seems excessive but should I worry? My scores a 287 with a 4 in writing...

Hi everyone! I still have two years before I apply but I am already considering focusing on schools that don't require the GRE. I am horrible at math and I am afraid that if I can't score high enough, it will hinder my chances of admission. However, I understand that not taking the GRE greatly...

Does anyone know the GRE code to send scores to Nova Southeastern Ft. Lauderdale on OTCAS. It is not listed on their website.

Hello all, I'm taking the GRE this Thursday. I know ETS allows you to send 4 scores for free right after taking the GRE. Can I give ETS the OTCAS code for 3 schools I plan on applying to even though the rest of my application to that school isn't finished. I'm just confused on if the school...

Hey everybody, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on schools to apply to. I was a previous engineering major and kind of overloaded myself on prereqs early on and screwed up my GPA a bit. I think my GRE and grade trend are something I can emphasize so I want to target schools that...
