Hi and welcome to my blog,
I opened this blog to help anyone who is preparing for his GRE exam.
I remember myself when I started - I was so lost and in such a panic.
Luckily I got this great Gre guide that helped me a lot
So study hard and good luck!
I know it’s probably a very subjective question, but i recently took the GRE exam and received a 560 for verbal and 750 for quant. I feel comfortable with my quantitative score, however, my verbal score is a lot lower. The overall score is 1310, would anyone recommend that I retake the GRE?
Thanks in advance.
Also, can anyone tell me from experience how long they had to wait for the GRE scores to be mailed to them? The computer-based version please. Thanks.

Overall those are good scores, but it depends what programs you are applying to. If you’re going for engineering or sciences, your scores are fine. If you’re going for philosophy or political science, you might want to try to get your verbal above 600. Either way, though, I’d say you have competitive scores.
It took about 4 weeks before I got my scores in the mail. So aggravatingly slow! I called and paid $12 to get my scores by phone after about 3 weeks of waiting.
