Worried about managing your GRE scores? Here's the good news - you have more control over your GRE Score Reports than you might think. Through GRE Score Select, you can strategically choose which scores to send to your target universities. On test day, you'll get free score sending to four programs, where you can either send your most recent attempt or all your scores. But the real flexibility comes with Additional Score Reports, which let you cherry-pick specific test attempts from your score history. This podcast walks you through all the different options and how to best use them to better your admission prospects.

Whether you want to showcase your highest GRE scores or demonstrate consistent performance across multiple attempts, you're in control. Just remember - while you can select which complete test scores to send, you can't mix and match sections from different attempts. Understanding these options is crucial for presenting your strongest academic profile to admissions committees. Make your score-sending decisions count - they're an important part of your graduate school application strategy.
