GRE scores

Applying to College
1

<p>Hi,
I intend to apply to linguistics in several schools, and I am a foreign student.
I got a 760 on the quantative and 530 on the verbal part, I have not got my analythical writing scores yet.</p>

<p>The thing is that I want to get into a good school and get a scholarship (otherwise I cannot affoard school in America).</p>

<p>I am aiming for schools such as Brown university, Cornell, U-Penn, and I also thought about giving Stanford a shot (although I know that Stanford is highly competitive).</p>

<p>I am currnlty graduating an MA in Linguistics (from Israel, with a good GPA), and before that I graduated a B.Sc in Computer Sciences and Mathematics (with only an average GPA). </p>

<p>I am worried that perhaps being a computer science graduate 760 on the quantative might be a bit low (although I am not aiming at computer science departments).</p>

<p>You should contact the graduate schools at the Universities you've mentioned. This forum mostly discusses admissions to undergraduate (BA, BS) admissions. Good luck to you.</p>

<p>The universities you mentioned are going to get many applicants with perfect GPAs and very high GREs. Are you sure you can compete?</p>

<p>You're better off asking this in the graduate school board:</p>
