realized a mistake on one of my apps..

<p>so i was double checking all my submitted applications to make sure the materials have all been received. </p>

<p>i took the GRE twice and on my application it had the lower test scores. i am almost positive i updated to have the higher scores. it had the most recent test date with the earlier test scores so i'm not sure if that was my mistake or something got mixed up (the school received both of my official GRE test scores)</p>

<p>Should I email them to make sure they understand the scores on my application are not my highest scores? I hate to send the admissions emails since I know they get tons but I feel like don't want them to never see my improved scores. Is it wrong to assume they'll see the higher scores they received from ETS?</p>

<p>thanks for any feedback</p>

<p>I don’t understand why people on this forum are so double-minded about emailing admissions office. This is exactly why you pay application fee, so you can ask them to do stuff for you. If i were you i would email/call and even if possible stop by.</p>

<p>I think it is because people (at least I am) are so hyper sensitive about anything affecting their chances of admission. They don’t want to decrease their chances in anyway or any perceived way and even if that is thinking sending an email might annoy the adcom some how (even if its a ridiculous thought). So people (like me) come here looking for reassurance during this stressful time where they have little control of their future.</p>

<p>You make a good point about the admissions office though. These application fees are expensive and the least the school can do is make sure the application is complete and accurate.</p>

<p>I would email or call the school to clarify. You gotta think - what would be a worse perception of you, the fact that you called to check something or test scores that don’t reflect your true abilities?</p>

<p>Also do note that not all graduate schools take your highest scores, though. Some average two scores, some take the most recent and some even take the lowest set.</p>
