what's minimum gre score to get into SDSU?
147178
I got into SDSU without taking the GRE or SAT. I transfered from a commuity college as a sophmore about 20 years ago. \n\nIf SDSU is still heavily impacted as it was 20 years ago, you would seriously want to consider getting your lower division out of the way at another college. Grossmont and Kearney Mesa College in San Diego had offered lower division courses that easily transfered to SDSU. You can save a few bucks on tuition that way as well.

a 1420/1600 is really good! You'd have a solid enough score to apply to the top 25 nationwide schools, and even some Ivies

For admissions to Wayne State if you have lower than a 2.75 GPA (it has to be higher than 2.0 though!) you must have at least a 21 on the ACT. So right now I would say you are at the bottom of the pool. If you have some great letters of recommendation, a great essay, and have shown leadership in extra curriculars, that will help your chances of getting in (to any college/university). If you can't qualify to get in this year, you can always attend a community college for a year to give yourself a higher GPA and reapply next year. Study for the ACT... a higher score will increase your chances! Best of luck!

Scholarships are few and far between for grad students. You're better off aiming for a teaching assistantship at whatever school admits you.\n\nIf that fails, you might go for a fellowship, but they tend to support areas lacking grad students (science and engineering)\n\nThere is no clear cut GRE score to get and it depends a lot on your area. If you're a math major, the quantitative should be high. If you're English, verbal should be high. Writing isn't really weighed heavily by anyone, since your personal statement shows that.

Depends on where you're trying to go and which program are you trying to get into. Here is a breakdown of GRE averages based on graduate Fields (scores are 200-800)\n\n1. Life Sciences- Math:568 Verbal: 464\n2. Physical Science- Math:694 Verbal: 491\n3. Engineering- Math:721 Verbal: 474\n4. Social Sciences- Math: 548 Verbal: 484\n5. Humanities and Arts- Math:549 Verbal: 541\n6. Education- Math: 521 Verbal: 450\n7. Business Math:570 Verbal:444\n\nDepending on what program you're going for, schools can concentrate on one score more than another (ie Engineer programs might not worry as much about your verbal score as a SS department). \n\nIn general:\nAnywhere in the 700's is great for 1st trier schools\n600's is very good. Will get you into certain programs at very good schools\nHigh 500's is good\nlow 500's and upper 400's is about average

Congratulations to your son on a wonderful GMAT score!  No offense to the prior poster, but San Diego State's program is brand new, and not generally recognized as being outstanding in the field yet (and their MBA program, while perfectly acceptable. isn't that wonderful overall either).  The original program in the U.S. was Ohio University, and in my experience, it is still the best-known and has the best networking, which is important in that field, at least within the U.S.  I've also heard good things about the programs at Temple University and University of San Francisco.  And some schools with generally good programs, like New York University, the University of Florida, and the University of Georgia, while I don't have direct experience with them, would probably not offer a bad program for fear of harming their overall reputation, so I would trust them too.  In Sports Marketing specifically, the University of Oregon and University Kentucky seem to be particularly strong.

Hello! Here are the top 5 elementary schools in that area, ranked by 2006 Academic Performance Index (API) score:\n\n1. Sage Canyon Elem. School (Del Mar) - 966\n2. Ashley Falls Elem. School (Del Mar) - 958\n3. Carmel Creek Elem. School (Solana Beach) - 956\n4. Solana Pacific Elem. School (Solana Beach) - 954\n5. Torrey Hills Elem. School (Del Mar) - 952\n\nNote that the statewide performance target is 800, so all of these schools are doing considerably better than the average. API ranges from 200 to 1000, based on statewide test scores, so these schools are doing very well indeed.\n\nI would suggest relocating to Del Mar since the top two elementary schools by API are located in the Del Mar school district. I would also suggest Del Mar since the Sage Canyon school district overall (including middle and high schools) is the best-performing school district in that area. That's something important to consider for when your children move on to middle school or high school. However, if you like Solana Beach, the difference in test scores between the Solana Beach and Del Mar school districts isn't that large. Either way, your children will be getting a great education. Del Mar, Solana Beach, and Carmel Valley all have excellent schools, better than the ones further south on San Diego's coast to Pacific Beach. \n\nGood luck with your move!

You have to be accepted first and some schools will require you to score a certain # of points on the GRE or LSAT (for law school), while other schools will take you without a GRE (this can also vary within the same school depending on the specific program you are trying to get into).  There is no requirement that says you must get your Master's at the same school as your Bachelors (I certainly didn't) but just because you have a Bachelors is no guarantee that you can get into a Master's program at any school you want.  You will not have to take extra classes, but you may have to take the GRE (or other entrance exam) or submit a writing sample, have a certain undergrad GPA, etc.

Well, I've gone through the process of applying to grad school twice, once to get my MBA and the other to get into a Ph.D. program in marketing. A GPA above 3.0 will not hurt you at all but the top schools.  Your GMAT score will probably count a bit more and should be at least 550, which is about the 50th percentile, but preferably 600, which is the 70th percentile.  Good recommendations from your previous professors and maybe employers can help, especially if the professors are well known in your desired area of study.  Beyond that, having a good attitude and being able to answer the questions "Why do you want to come to this school and why do you want to study ...?" will go a long way to helping go where you want to.

Depends how you define respectable.  This site (scroll down) breaks out scores for math and verbal.  You can take it from there.\nhttp://www.powerscore.com/gre/scoringscale.htm

Percent applicants admitted: 9%\n\nRequired units:\nRecommended units:\nEnglish - 4\nForeign Language - 4\nHistory - 2\nMath - 4\nScience - 4\nSocial Studies - 3\n\nSAT Reasoning Verbal: 700 - 790 \nSAT Reasoning Math: 700 - 790 \nACT Composite:          30 - 34 \n\n*Also, you need countless hours of community service hours. Still, the chances of you getting in are 9%. Good luck.

3.5 probably won't cut it, especially considering that most of the students who apply to Stanford have taken extremely tough classes and still have a 4.0. But the important thing is being a well-rounded student. Are you an officer in a lot of clubs? How are your SAT scores? You'll have to score around 2200 to make up for your low GPA. Definitely apply! It's better than always wondering if you might have made it. Good luck!

According to extensive research, the GRE is a better predictor of success in graduate school than the SAT for college. Also the GRE is one of many factors for gaining admission into graduate school. Your transcript carries the most weight,  followed by GRE,personal statement, letters of recommendations, and then if you're a science major, undergrad research.\n To concisely answer your question, I don't think one test can determine how someone will perform in graduate school.\nIn fact, some graduate schools only consider the GRE if you are applying from a school that the Committee has never heard of(US News and World Report 2005 ranking of Graduate Schools, Professor of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon).\nYour best bet is to make sure you have a good transcript.\n In all, I think someone's transcipt is the best predictor of success at the graduate level.

How about ASU?  You should be able to get into there.  You also might be able to get into USC - but it's very expensive.

Preparation depends on what kind of graduate program you want to enter. I don't know of a single elite university that takes the general GRE seriously -- they only want to see you break 500 in each section.\n\nI took the GRE cold. I prepped for 3 days using a Princeton Review GRE book I bought at Barnes & Noble http://www.bn.com and scored 1980 on my first and only attempt.\n\nthe only thing I really needed to practice was using my computer to take the test. i was accustomed to paper exams, so CBE was different for me.\n\nIf your vocab is weak, then by all means get a friend to hlep you with a wordlist. http://www.m-w.com has a Word of the Day column. very good practice!\n\nAnd if you are taking a subject exam like bio, chem, physics, etc, then good luck. it's those tests that require studying because they're so comprehensive.

Undergraduates take the SAT or ACT. The GRE is for graduate school. It has two types of tests: general and subject. If you are going to take it in the near future, start reviewing for the vocabulary section.
