| GRE作文重判全功略 |
|
| |
首先有几点说明：
1.AW成绩4分以上没必要Rescoring。
2.作文成绩和预期相差甚远。
3.如果重判分数有变动，ETS会退回申请费$45。虽然AW成绩在整个申请中作用很有限，还是建议大家尝试一下，起码有心理安慰作用，要知道好的心情对于申请同样重要。
4.本文适用于国际信用卡支付方式，其它方式请参考有关文章。
以下是本人申请全过程：6月14号电话查到6G成绩，AW只有3.5，郁闷之极决定申请重判。
我也是在GTER上查到重判办法的，见楼上的帖子：
GRE官方网站上也有：http://www.gre.org/services.html#handscr
下面是我给ETS的第一封信，询问如何用信用卡申请Rescore：
To Whom It may concern:
As a Chinese examinee of GRE Test, I have respectively finished Analytical Writing Section on 4.26 2004 in the Test Center of
8522 and paper-based General Test on 6.12 2004 in the Test Center of 10685, and I have just got my test score by phone.
However, I am strongly doubtful about the score of Analytical Writing section and want to make a request for hand rescoring.
Now I have two questions as follows:
1.Could I pay the fee for rescoring by credit card(Visa Card)? If so, how to pay?
2.Could I E-mail the request as a substitute for the direct mail or fax?
Following is my personal information and mailing address, please check it.

收到这封信后我就给ETS发了封传真，大家注意，不要在周末时间发，我第一次是周六发的，结果没有成功，可能ETS周末没有给传真机准备纸张。传真内容如下：

发完传真后，我给ETS又写了封信，确认他们是否收到传真：
I have faxed my rescore request and I wonder if my fax has been received. Could you send a confirm mail to me?Thank you!
第二天又收到ETS回信，内容是说我的传真还未处理，要我7－10天后再和他们联系：

request going along and when I can get the revised score report?
Thank you for your help!
过了两天，ETS终于给了我以下答复:

至此，申请重判整个过程结束。其间我深深感受到了ETS办事的认真负责以及高效，最后令我欣喜的是，我的申请费45美刀还可以refund，毕竟是3百多人民币啊，呵呵又可以多申请一所学校了。
最后需要补充的是，我考完作文后感觉很好，3.5分的成绩我是无论如何不能接收的。我之所以要费这么大劲申请rescore，主要是为了求得一个心理的平衡，并不是因为嫌分数低。说老实话，除了申请文科专业，有多少学校因为把AW成绩作文一个cutoff？极少有学校规定GRE总分要求，更不用说AW这个2002年才出台的考试。我这里还有一个很好的例子，我有个哥们今年去了Carnegie Melon商学院读MIS（2003年专业排名全球第2），他的Toefl成绩是580+4.0，按他的说法Toefl是硬伤，他的成功主要在申请材料上。我说这么多一个意思，希望那些担心G，T成绩不够的同学不要在网上问了（而且还有些相当多成绩已经好得不能再好的问，实在令人可气，特别是像我这样成绩很低的），多把经历放在自己的材料和Paper上，重考是件劳民伤财的事，而且往往得不偿失。
