Hi!

I have a 3.95 GPA from a top 20 university (US News & World Report). Either a leader or founder in the extracurriculars I participated in, over a year of research, some papers have been included in conferences, and I’m not concerned about getting good letters of rec or a writing a good personal statement.

My GRE is a 1200 though and I’m looking at a masters program in the humanities at a few Ivies, Chicago, Northwestern, to name a few. All of my schools say they do not have a cutoff point nor do they post their averages.

Do my chances look alright even though my GRE isn’t a 1600?

Thanks!
