GRE hell
May 3, 2008I’m a non-native speaker of English, so I don’t know whether I need a score for GRE, but I don’t think I can get away with a great score in TOEFL (test of English as a foreign language) since I have a degree from an American university…
The problem I have with this exam is that verbal section is SO HARD for me. When I was still in undergrad, I tried studying for it, and I did actually memorize more than 500 vocabulary items that I had never seen or heard of before… but my score for the verbal section was in the high 200s (though my math section was in the high 700s). Considering VERBAL skill is so important in the field of Anthropology, I am very worried about this test. I hope I don’t have to take it… if I do, I hope I can get a better score next time.
