So I took the GREs this week and scored V 460, M 760.
Going through the verbal section I wasn't very confident and felt like I had to guess more than I should have. I also didn't finish the section on time and left out 4 or 5 questions unanswered. Should I retake the new revised GRE to get a better verbal score? I know combined the score isn't that bad but it's really skewed.
Before you answer you should also know that my undergrad GPA isn't that great either. I graduated with a BA Bio and a 2.9.
Since I've taken pre-reqs however, my overall GPA has gone up to 3.02.
Undergrad
Bio I/II B+, Chem I/II B+, Physics I/II A, Microbio C-, Orgo I/II C, Animal Physiology D
Post-bach
Psych A, Developmental Psych A, Stat B+, A&P I A-, A&P II B
I know some of these courses aren't required but they're just some that screwed me over in my undergrad years. Should I retake any to try to boost my GPA? What exactly goes into the science GPA?
In addition, I also have 200 hours in an inpatient hospital setting and I've been working part-time as an aide for an outpatient ortho clinic for over a year so over 1000 hours there.
I know there's a lot to consider but I don't know what my next step should be. Thanks for the help in advance.
