Apparently, ETS allows me the choice to choose which scores to send. Do I choose to send only my best score, or do I send all my scores?

Also, I know there was a previous thread on this, but I was wondering what happened to the students that sent their scores from ETS to just 1 or 2 schools. Did the school send the scores to SOPHAS? Did SOPHAS send the scores to the rest of the schools that ETS did not send them to? Thanks!

I would just send your best score. They can't see that you've taken the GRE more than once so there's no need to send more than your best. Just remember you can't mix and match sections from tests.

I had one schools that sent the score to SOPHAS because the school requests all ETS scores be directed to SOPHAS. SOPHAS did not send the scores to the rest of schools for me... only the ones I told ETS too. Hope that helps.

Go with your best scores, unless for some reason you bombed one section and did fantastic on the other. But if they're relatively balanced, go with the best one overall. Depending on your concentration, there may be greater emphasis on the quantitative section as well.

So you can't mix and match sections, but can you mix and match Quant and Qual scores? I scored very highly in Qual when I took it, but not so awesome in Quant. My combined was enough to get me into my MPH program, but I'm considering taking the GRE again before applying to DrPH/PhD programs. I'm worried about not scoring as well in Qual if I do better in Quant.
