35O - 14 Phys, 9 Verbal, 12 Bio
First Question:
Would my relatively low verbal and essay scores be a red flag when applying to a top-3 University? Obviously they are not helping anything, but I am a non-traditional applicant and just want to know if they will trash my app because of them. Assuming that I have great essays, great experiences, and bring an interesting and relatively unique perspective on healthcare to the table. Do I have any shot at an interview?
...I hadn't gotten anything but a 12 in verbal on a practice test since my very first one, so I was pretty disappointed. That said, I don't think I ever got a 14 on a practice test in any category.
Second question:
I took that test in August 2010, is it still valid if I try to apply for 2014 entry? What if I get my application in before this August? I'm not exactly eager to study and take it again, but I'll do what I have to do.
Thanks!
