<p>Hello everyone,</p>
<p>I graduated from the University of Michigan with Psychology and Communication Studies degree. I am planning to apply to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) master's degree and Information Science master's degree.</p>
<p>For those of who do not know, HCI is an interdisciplinary field, combining mainly computer science, cognitive psychology, and design.</p>
<p>I have two GRE scores and I have trouble deciding which one to send for my application.</p>
<p>Score 1: Verbal: 158 (78%) / Quantitative: 165 (91%) / Writing: 4.0 (58%)
Score 2: Verbal: 162 (89%) / Quantitative: 161 (81%) / Writing: 4.5 (78%)</p>
<p>These two scores have the same combined verbal and quantitative scores, but the second score has slightly higher writing score. I know many of you are probably thinking that second score is obviously better. But the only reason why I am still struggling is because my major was in psychology and communications and I have no coursework involving quantitative skills. So I figured the only way for me to prove my competency in quantitative skill is through GRE. And from this perspective, Score 1 looks like a better option. However, Score 2 looks more balanced in all three sections. Unfortunately, many of the schools that I am applying to only allow me to send one score.</p>
<p>Please share your thoughts on my score please. Please let me know if there is any other information that I may provide to help you understand my situation better. Thank you so much.</p>
