HEP theory-- bad GRE but good Physics GRE score??

[astromandi]

What are the chances of getting admitted to a good university for High Energy Theory if someone scores very badly in General GRE
Say Q=800 V=350 AW=3.0

but does pretty well in Subject GRE
990
with very good recommendations and GPA.

What schools one must aim at for HEP theory ??

Chances are pretty good. So you can't write or speak english... That's not reallly too big a deal. You have shown that you know some basic physics and arithmetic, and were willing to put in the effort to score well on these exams.

Assuming your other credential are good, you should do fine.

I think the Physics score will offset your poor performance on Verbal (I am not quite sure about the Analytical though).

You might want to take TOEFL or IELTS in order to prove to schools that you can deal with English (provided you're an Intl. student).

As long as you have a decend TOEFL score nobody will care about your verbal score... mine is just 180 points above yours and i still got in

My TOEFL score is 109.

I took GRE without much preparation and did pretty bad in verbal section.
AW score in GRE 3.0 somehow contrasts with my score in TOEFL writing section 29/30.

the TOEFL writing says nothing honestly... i took the test hung over and still got a 5 on the computer-based

the score should be good enough imo

Hi

i am not applying for theory at all, so I am being judged by different standards. Check this http://www.physicsgre.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=975 thread and see where other people got into
