What GRE score should I aim for as an engineering student in USA for a Master's?
27 Jul 2026 · Answered by Saru Sharma · 1 min read
Aim for a GRE score of at least 320, with 165+ in quantitative reasoning for engineering master's programs in the USA.
Strong quantitative scores are especially important for engineering and can help offset a lower GPA. Relevant work experience may also be considered by some programs.
Low percentage, study gap or no work experience?
