Message: <blockquote data-quote="Faylene Frye" data-source="post: 3682" data-attributes="member: 3046">Low profile MFE program ( Low GRE score )Hi everybody,I am trying to understand if I have ANY chances to get into an MFE program, given my very low academic profile.I studied Nuclear Engineering and I always did well ( GPA 3.9 ).However, my GRE quant score is 709.I think I'll never get more than that, simply because I can't make calculations in my head.I have always (easily) dealt with heavy mathematics, but... I just can't make simple arithmetic in my head.Therefore I am doomed to perform poorly on the GRE.Is there any MFE that would ever accept somebody with such a low profile?I'd be also interested in a PhD in the same field, but the problem is the same: the GRE!!!Thank you very much,Faylene Frye</blockquote>
