VCU accelerated MSN - GRE retake?

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

Hi! I was just wondering if anyone on here could tell me my chances of getting in. I graduated with a BS in Biology, 3.02 cumulative GPA, I've worked in a free clinic, as a pharmacy technician and currently work in a genetic lab testing for rare diseases. I believe I've gotten A's and B's in all the pre-reqs. I just took the GRE and got a 620 Quantitative and 490 Verbal. I know it's a competitive program, and I'm finishing up getting my recommendations and essays ASAP.

Should I retake the GREs to improve my score? I think I could feasibly raise my total score by 300.. I ran out of time on the quant. and didn't really study root words for the verbal.

Thanks!

I think you are okay. I would apply or you can get a VCU advisor to review all your paperwork before you send it in. I graduated from VCU RN to BSN. Because of the GRE and no MSN program online, I am planning on attending Walden U in January. Good luck.
