    Low GRE score: Please give me your advice

    Hi!

    Today, I got the gre score, V410, Q800.
    (So bad!, but I don't have enough time.)

    In this case, should I retake a gre test to apply for PHD program in

    management? or not?

    Please give me your advice!

    Thank you!

    ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
    Q800 AND YOU CONSIDER IT BAD?
    WHO CARES ABOUT VERBAL?
    as long as you do decently on the Analytical part and your essays are in good English then you'll have no problem.

    You are right and I bet in Literature and Philosophy it is even higher, but here we are talking about PhD in Management.

    Second Reactor. But, if you want to apply to Top10 in yr field, I feel yr verbal score not help much.

    I agree but the question is whether this score will harm "whowho" 's application that much as to make it worth retaking the GRE (and risking the Q800)
    Question: Are you a native English speaker? If yes then there is no problem. I don't think anyone will doubt your verbal skills. If no, then don't you have to take the TOEFL?
