AW 3.5 26%-----I finally got my AW score, actually, I'm noy surprised,
I'm not a very strong writer, I can write papers, I can ace all the writing classes, but I just don't get the GRE essay.</p>
<p>I wasn't expecting my Verbal and Quant to be so high, I thought it was impossible to score perfectly.
My major is genetics, three year research exp, worked in two labs. One paper as co-author, and I'm writing another one as second author.
Will this GRE score look suspecious on my application? well, at the grad schhol's point of view</p>
<p>Didn’t you ask this a while ago?
AW is the least of adcoms weighing because they know the scoring system is ridiculous.</p>
<p>Don’t worry about it, your research is very strong, most grad student doesn’t even publish until later year and yet you already have one co author.</p>
<p>I don’t think a 3.5 is a low AWA at all. It’s average, but nothing extraordinarily bad.</p>
<p>An AW score of 3.5 <em>is</em> a low score, but it won’t matter, especially given your verbal score. Most programs only glance at AW. While a 3.5 is in red flag territory, your research and statement of purpose should dispel any momentary doubts.</p>
<p>I have done grad admissions several times (in political science). Our spreadsheet for candidates doesn’t even have a column for the AW scores. In other words, we don’t even look at them.</p>
