Reporting just a portion of the GRE score

It looks like each individual component of the GRE score can be listed separately on the AMCAS application. Can I submit just one portion of my score, but not the other? Will this bring up questions or look odd? And the reason I would do this is because I scored very well on one section, but not as great on the other and would prefer not to list it.

just don't report them. med schools don't require or care about GRE scores. and I am pretty sure there is no possible way to report only half of your scores.

Thanks for the response - I wasn't sure how they viewed GRE scores, so that helps. Each component of the score has to be entered separately - so it is possible to just enter one section and stop there.

I wouldn't report your GRE scores at all, but reporting only one score will make it obvious there is a reason you didn't report the other. It's silly to look like you're hiding a bad score when we're talking about something that was optional to put in the first place.

1. yes, it would look weird if you didn't report one of the components
2. don't report your GRE at all. no one will look at this section
