<p>I've taken the GRE twice, one in Nov 04 and again in Oct 05. My Nov 04 scores are better than my more recent ones. When filling out online applications, it says to put your GRE test score in. Can I put in my better one even if it is not my most recent? The admissions committee will still see both scores when they get my official scores from ETS, so I don't see much of a problem. I just don't want to look like I'm "lying." What do you think?</p>
<p>Second question. I studied abroad for a summer and earned 9 hours course credit. The study abroad was in Quebec, but the program was through a school in GA. So, on my transcript I have study abroad credits from a school in GA I never attended. I did not request official transcripts from this school--I'd rather get official ones from the school in Quebec--Laval--but it does not even mention I went there. I've filled out on my applications that I studied in Laval. Should this be a problem, too?</p>
<p>Don't know how to answer the first question...but as for the second question...</p>
<p>I also did a study abroad program through another domestic school. What I had done is state that I attended the domestic school for a study abroad program. That is where my official transcript came from and thus that's the school you were officially attending. Did you get an official transcript from the international school upon completion of the course? If you haven't sent out your applications yet, I would definately change it to the domestic school. Yes, you studied at the school in Quebec, but there likely is no way to get a transcript directly from them. The transcript from Georgia likely states that the course was held in Quebec, but regardless if the school in Quebec had you registered, you must request this transcript from Georgia for your grad school applications. If you have already sent out your applications, I would let them know you made a mistake ASAP.</p>
<p>Just as an aside. To let my prospective grad schools know about study abroad program, I mentioned something about my experiences in my personal statement (I did this only for my MS applications, not doing it for my PhD applications).</p>
<p>If you do nothing about this situation, it may jeopardize your admissions in my opinion...</p>
<ol>
<li><p>I think putting in the higher score is fine--you did earn that score after all.</p></li>
<li><p>I would just explain (somewhere--personal statement, etc.) that you studied at Laval through a program organized by the Georgia school.</p></li>
