Here it is

by caramel3536 » Wed Aug 06, 2008 9:41 am
So I took the exam today for the 3rd time and I have a couple of questions:

(1) Is it possible to ask for a remark? Especially for the verbal because I can swear that was my best verbal performance only to come out with a 36, unbelievable. I have been averaging around 42 in all different tests, and the lowest i was expecting is 40. I've noticed a couple of people have experienced the same issue with verbal since the scoretop fiasco, I think it's time for class action :)

(2) How competitive is 660 at schools like Harvard, Stanford and Kellogg?

Any honest feedback is much appreciated

I believe you can only ask for a re-grade on the AWA. And the score could of course, go down.

If you are confident that they scored you wrong, I would simply take it again.
