Thank you so much Perrik! I knew you would have an excellent answer.
I think that depending on the situation taking the GRE instead of classes can be a risk, since we donât know the future. That challenges my belief in the equality of testing to courses, though, since I also think that the GREs are such an excellent opportunity to show what has been learned independently and should count equally.
I am planning to send the GRE topic summaries with my application, so that they can better understand my transcript. I hope that will help.
(I am not taking psychology and it will be a long time before I am ready to apply to grad school.)
Barcotta â I really like your idea for Anastasia of requesting a 6 month delay in enrollment.
