I endorse this even though I feel Manhattan's words were too wide-off. Words like Ersatz, Careened and so on just felt like someone was taking a piss.

Memrise, Magoosh 1000 flashcards and Barron 1100 list are ok. You won't need another list.

Hello all! I recently wrote my GRE but the result is not encouraging(Verbal-142, Quant-147, Analytical-3). I graduated with 4.24/5 and seek to apply into any of these institutions for Msc (Agricultural Economics); uni nebraska lincoln, tennesse state uni, uni kentucky lexington and western kentucky uni. Do i stand any chance of gaining admission(fully funded)? If yes, what's the way forward and how do i go about it?

while my knowledge is definitely limited, each person's application and possible funding route isn't exactly the same. The GPA and GRE correlation might be a red flag, having said that, mail the graduate coordinators of the aforementioned schools and inquire what a GRE score of your range, entails when it comes to funding. You might want to look at some B, B- schools hopefully you get something tangible. By the way you didn't give a brief gist on how you prepared, all in all my Bosses would delineate better. cc Scholastica16 Dremanuel gokuu cool

starting from now till the deadline of the program you want to apply to which usually is December or January for fall(September) intake.
so you have about 3month to take both if you want to apply to fall 2018

Thanks eastafro and good luck in your GRE in Nov.

I'm still a novice here.

Hello, although someone has said it all. I also intend studying agricultural economics Msc also. I noticed through my research most us schools for that course need a min score of 300, and some even go as far as minimum of 160 for your Quant. All the same wish you the best. If you find any school that accept less, let us know..

I think those pursuing agricultural here re increasing... Once upon a time I seem to be the oNly one

Some fall deadlines are still in April but funding is harder then.

Then you have Spring deadline but the admission is between June- Oct/Nov for most schools and it is almost never funded. I still think fall for even Jan admission deadlines is possible. Most people only advice for early bird admissions because of the possibility of funding.

The truth is, you can get admission but funding is going to be difficult. Agricultural Economics is a big deal in the US and is getting regnant coverage so it is getting competitive to get in never mind being fully funded.

You can contact POIs in B- and C+ schools and leverage your GPA in interacting with them (because of the funding). Write a very strong SOP and get very good LORs while at it. If you can make other aspects of your application very strong you would still stand a chance as the GRE is just one aspect.

Or you can retake the GRE and try to score higher.
