Hi all!

Do schools take the highest score of each GRE test?
For example, one could be like 148 V/ 152 Q/ 4 W, then another would have say... 158 V/ 148 Q/ 3 W. Would they consider you then 158/ 152/ 4?
Or do they just take the one with a higher combined score? Also, does it matter if someone takes the test 3 times or not? thanks!
 
Hey! Depends on the school some schools may do so! You just have to email/call to find out which ones
 
From what I have seen, most of the schools will take your highest score from each section, regardless of times you've taken it

Really? Over here in California they only take the best chunk. We weren't able to pick and choose our sections to send over. It was one set of scores or the other.
