Visa Interview experience with no GRE score


VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning sir

VO: Why this university?
Me: This university offers specialization in my area of    interest and it got a good faculty of research

VO: What's your Undergraduate score?
Me: 62%

VO: Do you have any backlogs?
Me: No sir

VO: Whats your GRE score?
Me: The university I applied does not require GRE score sir

VO: How many universities did u applied to?
Me: 3

VO: Does all the 3 universities doesn't require GRE score?
Me: Yes

VO: I can't issue a visa without GRE, your not showing interest in studies         (...... Friends observe this statement, the Visa officer made it very clear he is not supposed to issue Visa without GRE score)


Friends I feel this judgement is justified. Does it make sense if anyone take Visa interview without writing GRE? I saw few students, who attended visa interview without GRE scores, and ended up as above. If you heard of any success stories, that might happened of mere luck. For the students who try to take this path, please understand the mandatory requisites to get into US universities are GRE and TOEFL. How well did you perform, will come next.

If your school does not require the GRE then it is best to have a letter from the school that explains this and tells how they evaluated your english proficiency.
