Old GRE score

[pttl7119]

Hi everyone!

I'm just going to be brief and to the point:

I just recently graduated from an accelerated nursing program in May, externed on an MICU floor before I graduated, and is currently employed there. My goal is to eventually get to CRNA school. Prior to that, I also have 2 Bachelors in a non-relate field. I took my GRE back in late 2011 when I finished my previous degrees with intent to go into a completely different field. However, now I am intending on applying for CRNA school for Fall 2017 (deadline for apps would be Fall 2016), so my GRE score would still be valid. My score is average, 302 combined - 151 on both verbal and quantitative and 4.5 on writing

I intend on taking my CCRN next year once I've met the minimum hours requirement. My question is, since it's cutting close to the GRE 5 year score limitations, is it wise to keep it or should I retake it? I was planning on retaking it this winter, but I don't know it will make a big difference for my application. It's an expensive test, but I will retake it if I have to so I wouldn't have destroy my chances of being selected.

Any advice is helpful.

thank you

I would suggest you get in touch with the schools you planning to apply to. If they are ok with the GRE score you have now why waste money and time! and there are many schools that would not even require GRE scores. All the best.
