Multiple GRE attempts

[deleted421268]

How do schools view multiple gre attempts? I hear we can choose what scores we want to send to schools so there is no way they can know how many attempts an applicant done right?

Each time you take the exam you have the option to send your scores to 4 schools for free. Each other is around $27. Therefore most schools will see all of your scores but in the end it does not really matter how many times they usually just care about your highest.

Ya but doesn’t a person have the option to not send scores to any schools while just sending certain scores?

The PT Admissions office at Arcadia told me they typically expect at least 2 attempts at the GRE. But they use the GRE as a way to filter out applicants, so as long as you meet the requirement, they don’t pay attention to what your score is. I’d recommend reaching out to the programs and ask them what their philosophy of the GRE is. Some don’t use it, some use it to filter applicants and others use it as an important part of the application.
