Hi everybody,
I made a blunder in the verbal sections. i had two verbal sections. In one I attended all the questions and in the second I got stuck in an RC and could only attend 16/30 questions. the result is that my verbal score is 270 only.my gre quant is 770 and did well in analytical sections.
my toefl score is inthe range of 210-267.

Should i try applying for MS in CS or should i go for GRE again.

I don't think you have a chance of getting in anywhere with a 270 on the Verbal section. You need to take the test again.

I agree with Erin, that u shud take ur test again...Let alone admission, with this V score ur VISA would definetely be at stake......U CANNOT convince a VISA officer with that score....

Thank you everybody! everybody i talked to has advised me to take the gre again. since with this verbal i will have problems in getting into a good uni., viza clearance. i have decided to give teh gre again.

what is the ETS GRE POLICY on reporting scores for those who have appeared more than once. do they send in the latest scores. or do they send an average . what is the exact policy?

I took my gre on 20th dec'2002. according to gre bulleting i can take it once in a calendar month. do i need to keep a gap of atleast 30 days or can i take it on 1st of january 2003?

Hi
Some universities take the latest GRE score whereas some take the average of 2 scores. It depends on school to school. So no harm in taking the test again.

Best Luck
