I have heard mixed reviews about the GRE and how schools use it to analyze your application. I am not very strong in verbal, but am very strong in the math section. Can a low GRE score hurt the chances of being admitted to these schools? Feedback will be appreciated- I am taking the revised GRE soon and was wondering how my current application stats/ qualities would look as is. Thanks!

Your GPA is solid. I wouldn't think you would have any problems getting in. Maybe put more time into studying for the GRE before taking it. You should be fine though. Good luck!
 
You should change title of topic to `is it possible NOT to get in?` with the stats you have!

Agreed. I don't know why you are even slightly worried because your stats are great so far. Your GPA is higher than the average GPA for accepted applicants, and you have quite a few extracurriculars. You should be able to get accepted to at least one of the schools you apply to if not more.
 
You will get accepted to every school you mentioned.


Sent from my iPhone using SDN Mobile app I will accept any pt school at this point. I cannot sleep
