Another one of those GRE questions...
I'm applying to MFA programs for creative writing. Took the GRE with a sinus infection and ended up with a 600 V, 520 Q and a 5.5 writing. The math is higher than I have been testing and the verbal is a lot lower...I know lots of MFA programs don't look at GRE scores and the ones that do only pay attention to verbal/writing (I'm pretty disappointed with the verbal but I'll take the writing) so I don't know how to feel about it. What do you guys think?
If it makes much of a difference my GPA is a 3.93 (4.0 in my major), I should be getting good recs and I'm really happy with the state of my portfolio, as are my professors. Obviously that's the most important part, but does anyone have insight about how GRE scores help or hurt your chances of getting into MFA programs?
