GRE AW polisci PhD

<p>Hi everybody,</p>

<p>I know, I know... we have similar posts... but I was so shocked today that I decided to ask for some (at least) moral help.</p>

<p>I'm planning to apply to some top tier unis (PhD in Political Science), but then the GRE scores came. This is my whole situation:</p>

<p>GPA: 3.9 (from a Spanish university)
TOEFL: 105
GRE: 620 (verbal), 700 (quant), 3.5 (aw)</p>

<p>Do I need to retake the GRE because of the AW section?</p>

<p>I will appreciate very much your answers... thank you for that.</p>

<p>No. The AW section is generally irrelevant. Writing samples are much more important.</p>
