I took the GRE back in June of 2007 and got a 550V 550Q & 5.5 Writing. My gpa is a 3.37 (graduated May 2006) and my prereq gpa is about a 3.9 with 2 more classes to go. Should I be taking it again, or just go with my score? I'm applying to the SUNY schools (upstate, downstate, stonybrook), UVM in Burlington and maybe Simmons/MGH/BU in Boston. Did anyone get into any of these schools with a similar GRE score?
 
No, all you need at most schools is a 1000 to qualify. If you get a 1000 they don't really seem to care if you get any higher.
