I am also a horrible test-taker. You may want to invest in a formal study program and do additional practice at home with the study books. I plan to retake the GREs because I did poorly as well. I will say that, at least for my MA, my GREs were not the defining factor in my admissions…I was able to get into all 5 MA programs to which I applied, including two Ivy Leagues. Make yourself known with the adcoms, write killer SOPs, and try the GRE again with considerable prep. Find out if the schools that interest you require a minimum GRE score. Good luck.
