Dear Admissions Consultants,
I have a lackluster GPA from a good school and a competitive major (2.9 in architecture at UC Berkeley). I graduated four years ago and, pardon my lack of modesty, but my work experience since has been relevant and excellent. My GRE scores are inconsistent (620 verbal, 630 math, 3/6 on the writing). I’m applying to some of the more competitive graduate programs in urban planning where GRE scores are optional. I was wondering if submitting my GRE scores might help or hurt my chances of admission. It’s the writing score that concerns me obviously.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Julie
