\nThinking about applying to grad school and curious about the average GRE score for engineering programs? Wondering what score will help you get into top engineering schools? While not all schools reveal their admitted students’ stats, the US News and World Report collects score data from graduate schools annually. This gives us insights into GRE scores for master\u2019s students in the top 100 engineering programs.<\/p>\n

\nLet’s dive into that data and see what it tells us. After all, as engineers, we know data interpretation is crucial.<\/p>\n
