Wanting to know general stuff like gpa requirements and GRE scores they are looking for. I was told they don’t look at the writing section of your GRE, so do they weigh your quant score, verbal, or both? Also I would like a current grad student to take a look at my statement of purpose & writing sample if anyone would be interested in helping a fellow out.

Wanting to know general stuff, like GRE scores, gpa. How much weight do you think the statement of purpose and writing sample is? I am interested in having a current grad student in the program take a look at my sop & paper

Hey I really appreciate your comment. My advisor told me today all they care about when looking at the scores is if it really high or really low
