Omitting a crappy GRE score

[Assumption]

Hey guys. I took the GRE's last year just for kicks, but got a really crappy grade.

My question is:

1. Do I have to mention this when applying to vet schools?

2. If I DO have to mention it, Do I have to also send them these scores?

You have to send GRE scores to schools no matter what, and ETS will include all scores no matter what. If you take it again, most schools will take the better score or the newer score. That's what I would aim for.

Yeah, if you send general GRE scores to any schools they will get a report with your general test score history* on it. I'm not sure if this applies if you decide to cancel the scores before seeing them when you finish the test - it probably doesn't. But since you know what the scores were you obviously didn't cancel them. So you have to report them, yes.

*Subject tests will not show up on this report unless you request them to be sent as well

So should I contact ETS so they send over my OLD GRE scores?

BTW, I'm re-taking my GRE's next week... So I was figuring that when I send THOSE scores, my old scores would be sent along with them...

Am I making sense guys?

Yes, when you re-take the GRE in one week. The score reports that are sent will have the scores from that day as well as all scores from general tests taken within the last five years. Good Luck!!
