please help me GRE 80Q 350V

[Doc09]

I just finished my GRE with 1150(800Q 350V)
Verbal is too too bad, I had just 1 month prep so there is no complain here
But the problem is I wanna apply for MPH(Master of Public Health) or PHd(Medical science like: Immuno,Bio,Micro....) in US, and the deadline for most 2008 Aug is 2007 December.That means I have to go with this ashamed score and try to get a place for any price...

Do you think I can apply with such a low score, will any university accept me?
I will graduate 2008 Mar

Please please help me
I am so so down

You have to try again. With a 350 verbal score, you probably wouldn't get a visa to study in the U.S. It's harder now. You still have time to retake; just focus on verbal. I would strongly suggest a vocab book and a review book. I have Word Smart for the GRE...much better than the big lists because you're not wasting time on words that won't show up on the GRE. Cracking the GRE has very good tests and verbal tips; try that.

I just found a really good site that has a ton of verbal exercises and word lists and this interactive flash cards which are pretty helpful! It's much cheaper than Kaplan, but this prepared me well especially for the verbal section of the GRE. I ended up getting a 720 in Verbal.

I suggest you check out this site

I do not think that a high GRE score will take you into your dreamed universities. Some people who have high gre score failed into undergraduate school and some people who have not very good gre score had already went to universities.
It is real. You maybe have so many years and many projects experiences and even you are proud with them until today.But that will not help you and push you into the Undergraduate schools. Some universities still send you rejection letters.
The fact is they do not understand you and what you have done. To them you are only a shit whatever you have done even if you have launched the moon and come back successfully.

Hi crna,
