I just took the GRE yesterday, and I think I did pretty well on verbal (166) and quant (162), but I'm worried I bombed the AWA section. I was typing until time ran out... I finished my essays, but I barely looked over them, and I feel like my argument essay was kind of weak.
My main concern is that I'm not going to have time to retake the GRE, and I don't really want to retake it JUST because of my AWA score. I'm applying this cycle, and by the time I get my scores back, I most likely won't be able to retake the GRE before apps are due. So, if my AWA score comes back and it's not good (like a 3.5 or less, from what I've been reading), my question is... am I doomed? Should I even apply this cycle?
I know other factors probably matter... I have a 3.83 GPA and thousands of vet and animal hours (small, large, exotic, and wildlife). I'm hoping a poor AWA score won't doom me, but I'm kind of freaking out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
