GRE Scores and Universities – Questions and Answers -1

By HSB 

I have answered some questions about GRE Scores and University Suggestions.

daaku From Average GRE Scores – University of Texas Dallas (UTD)

In GRE i got 1230( quants-700, verbal -530), My quants score is less than average. Will this affect my chances? Will improving it above 780, improve my chances?? I want admission in any of the top 20 univ’s for MS in CS…

GRE Score of 1230 is good to get admission to Schools that have Average GRE Scores of 1100 to 1250. If you can improve Quantitative score, its good to take GRE again. To get admission in to Top 20 schools with score 1230 is difficult. You will need GRE Test Score above 1350 with research experience and good recommendation letter [ Sample Recommendation Letter ]

Its already mid october, You can apply for Summer 2009 which starts in June 2009 or for Fall 2009 (August). I would suggest to retake GRE Exam. Verbal score ofr 270 will be difficultto get admissiion into schools and also student visa. GRE score above 1100 is good

Welde from Low GRE Score Universities

Hi All,
I am planning to take GRE+TOEFL by the coming January.
Expecting score of: 750 Q + 500 V = 1250 (average)
I want to study MSc in computer security.
what are the things I want to do regarding Admission?
Should I start applying from now onwards (Remember: I want to start MSc in the Fall of 2009 in USA)
boundless thanks

U.S. Universities offer M.S. (Master of Science) degree, not MSc as in UK and India. Theer will be many universities that have late deadline, so you can apply for Fall 2009 after taking GRE in Jan 2009. I would say, if you too specific about Computer Security, start browsing universities that offfer computer security as major in Computer Science. You can look for Information Security also. But, for time being spend 90% of your time preparing for GRE and 10% browsing universities. To get started, you can download the e-book “Students Guide to U.S. Universities
