hello everyone,

i am in the process of applying to pt schools right now.

I have yet to take my gre's but i am definitely going to in a few weeks
(mid august)

some schools i am applying to do not have a gre requirement. (stockton, NYIT, dominican)

should i get my apps done and send them in asap or wait to take the gre and send in those scores too?

Do you think sending in my apps very early on will help my chances? or will having taken the gre's be an advantage?

I know that for at least stockton they will want to look at SAT scores. mine was a 1320 taken 6 years ago.

my gpa stats are not so great, GPA is a 3.1, pre-reqs is similar
200+ hours of paid pt aide experience by end of august
i have been studying hard for the gres and consistently score 1150's on practice exams
but i am confident that ill be able to raise it to the 1200's range.

If anyone knows about this or had a similar experience please let me know.

any info will be appreciated. thanks

Go ahead and get your applications in asap. You can have the GRE score sent directly to the schools when you do finally take the test.
