I know the minimum required GRE for most programs, but I was wondering what a competitive GRE would be. I just took my GRE today and am disappointed. I got 148 quant (some programs require >150) and 155 verbal. I am disappointed with the quant since I was getting between 153-155 with practice exams. I guess I don't want to retake it right now, so I am wondering if I should keep it or try again. If I do retake the GRE, I'll probably do it during the summer. regardless. I will take a break and focus on my new job for now. Nevertheless, should I retake GRE or try to hold on to it for about 1-2 years?
Those who scored over 310 total, how long did you practice and what did you use? I used free practice texts from princeton review website and manhattan prep. I scanned Kaplan a little bit.
