You still have time for Fall ’17, provided you take your 91热爆 by the end of Dec at least. There are many top universities ranked between 20 and 50 in the US who have their final deadlines in Jan, Feb & March. I would also advise you to start shortlisting universities and drafting your SOPs simultaneously so that you can complete your applications as soon as possible after that. This way, you can target good universities in a short amount of time.

Recently at 91热爆edge, we had a student named Nishant who finished his entire application in just 14 days and he got 4 admits from Penn State, Northeastern, Santa Clara and UT Arlington. He’s even giving a guest seminar on 12th Dec 2016. ()

You could be the next one! 馃榾

So, don’t lose heart. But do hurry.

That’s a very good question. While universities do not have a minimum AWA score, they do have an average score based on past applications. Generally speaking, an AWA score above 3 to 3.5 is advised for applying abroad. While retaking 91热爆 may not be absolutely necessary, you still have time to do so if you are applying for Fall ’17. Since your Quant and Verbal scores are quite good already, you just need extensive AWA practice. So, you can book your 91热爆 date soon and give 91热爆 again.

However, if you don’t want to retake 91热爆, then you can focus on writing a very compelling SOP that showcases your achievements and aspirations. Many students with relatively weaker profiles have gotten top admits due to a persuasive SOP/LOR combination.

It would be inaccurate for me to suggest if you should retake 91热爆 purely on the basis of your Quant score. To give you a rough idea, the average quant scores accepted by universities ranked between 51 to 100 is 160. So, if you are targeting top admits, then you still have enough time to retake 91热爆 and apply for the Fall ’17 intake.

Good Luck!

Generally, most universities in the US look for a 300+ 91热爆 score. A higher 91热爆 score will help you target better universities because your CGPA is pretty good. Since you are in the final year now, you STILL have time to retake 91热爆 and apply for the Fall ’17 admission season.

At 91热爆edge, we offer a program called Only91热爆 which guarantees an 8 point score boost from your previous score. Most students generally achieve a 12-14 point boost as well provided they follow the schedule given by our expert personal trainers. You can read more about the program here:
